A novel efficient algorithm for motion detection in dynamic background was proposed. In image registration step, a feature-based and self-adaptive Sequential Similarity Detection Algorithm (SSDA) algorithm was proposed, which searches for matching position under constraints induced by image features with variational threshold. Then perform change detection by calculating and classifying the Mean Absolute Difference (MAD) around detected features in the middle frames of three consecutive images. Moving objects position was determined according to the rule that the feature from moving regions shows a lager MAD. Experiments on data sets of four typical scenes show that the improved registration algorithm is accurate and costs less than 0.4 s in computation, much faster compared with other four methods, and the proposed Dual Maximum Mean Absolute Difference Algorithm (DMMADA) can obtain a robust set of moving object features. Our algorithm can be used for fast detection of moving targets in dynamic background as well as change detection.
