Abstract
This paper presents a method for detecting moving objects in image sequences produced by a stationary camera. The method is based on perceptual organisation. An edge tracker is developed to extract edge traces on the fly. It is both robust and fast; the method executes in real-time. Moving objects are detected and tracked within the image sequence by computing the difference between the edge-trace flows in consecutive frames. Experimental results are provided
