It highlights the importance of surveillance systems in enhancing security at ports, airports, and on commercial and military vessels. Given the threats posed by piracy and terrorism, the necessity of such systems is emphasized. The book aims to promote new research approaches, as there have been few comprehensive studies on video detection and tracking of maritime vehicles to date. The algorithms presented represent the state of the art and offer valuable insights for professionals and researchers in this field.
