Abstract

We present a complete and modular framework that extract trajectories in a real and complex retail scenario, under unconstrained video conditions. Two motion tracking algorithms that combine features from crowd motion detection and multiple tracking are presented to build motion patterns and understand customer’s behavior. Their evaluation across several datasets show promising results.
