A novel method for graffiti detection using change detection algorithm

In recent decades vandal acts and graffiti drawing problem have increased and have required a lot of public funding. To face this problem the communal administrations have invested in automatic video surveillance systems. To deal with this problem through image processing techniques, this paper presents a method for graffiti detection based on change detection algorithm and motion vector. The aim of this system is to detect the graffiti painting act while people are going to draw, identify them and distinguish the drawer.
