Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to meet the large demand for the new-generation intelligence monitoring systems that are used to detect targets within a dynamic background.

Design/methodology/approach

A dynamic target detection method based on the fusion of optical flow and neural network is proposed.

Findings

Simulation results verify the accuracy of the moving object detection based on optical flow and neural network fusion. The method eliminates the influence caused by the movement of the camera to detect the target and has the ability to extract a complete moving target.

Practical implications

It provides a powerful safeguard for target detection and targets the tracking application.

Originality/value

The proposed method represents the fusion of optical flow and neural network to detect the moving object, and it can be used in new-generation intelligent monitoring systems.
