We propose a novel adaptive technique for detecting moving shadows and distinguishing them from moving objects in video sequences. Most methods for detecting shadows work in a stat...
— Systems are more and more expected to work in dynamic environment, to deal with fluctuation of their characteristics and to guaranty functional and nonfunctional requirements. ...
Virtual execution environments have become increasingly useful in system implementation, with dynamic translation techniques being an important component for performance-critical ...
