A New Method for Real Time Abandoned Object Detection and Owner Tracking

In this paper, a surveillance system able at detecting abandoned objects automatically is proposed. In particular the implemented system aims at detecting the presence of abandoned objects or in a guarded indoor environment and at tracking the owner while he is in the scene and advise if another person take the abandoned object instead of the owner.
