Abstract. It is possible to improve the characteristics of the algorithms of detection
and tracking of moving objects by means of excluding of shadowed areas from
detected areas. The results of experimental measurement of characteristics
of the shadow detection algorithms are given. The algorithms of correction of borders of
rectangles which surround detected
objects are described.
Keywords: object detection, object
tracking, shadow detection.
