First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of extracting objects from a video comprising the steps of:
- identifying regions of a selected frame of the video appropriate for tracking;
tracking identified regions across frames subsequent to said selected frame of the video;
calculating motions of the identified regions; and
identifying new regions for tracking.

Abstract
A method of extracting objects from a video includes the identification of regions to be tracked, tracking the regions across several frames, calculating motions of the regions, and identifying new regions to be tracked. Regions of a selected frame of the video that are appropriate for tracking are selected. Tracking of the identified regions is then performed across frames subsequent to the selected frame of the video. Motions of the identified regions are calculated, and new regions for tracking are identified.

16. A method of generating an indexed video comprising the steps of:
-
identifying regions of a frame of the video appropriate for tracking; tracking the identified regions across subsequent frames of the video; calculating motions of the identified regions including identifying coherent video objects; identifying new regions for tracking in response to said calculated motions; creating tubes that relate to said coherent video objects; and indexing and storing said tubes in a searchable database. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
