The video data taken by CCTV cameras are becoming abundant as CCTV is widely spreading in surveillance area. As video analytic technologies are developing, object detection and classification of video data can be performed by machines like CCTV cameras and computers. The automatic object detection and classification can be applied to identify same person from multiple video clips taken at different time or by different cameras.
