1. A video monitoring method, comprising the steps of:
- determining motion changes in a set of video frames to find potential objects;
defining one or more bounding boxes around the potential objects;
spatially and temporally filtering the bounding boxes to eliminate potential objects; and
classifying potential objects in the remaining filtered bounding boxes.

Abstract
A video monitoring method that involves determining motion changes in a set of video frames to find potential objects is described. One or more bounding boxes are defined around the potential objects. These bounding boxes are spatially and temporally filtered to eliminate potential object candidates, with only potential objects in the bounding boxes remaining after filtering being classified or identified.
