1. A method for dynamic scene modeling and change detection applicable to motion analysis, comprising the steps of:
inputting a current image of said scene, and previously stored frames thereof;
representing said current image in a subspace;
learning a dynamical model in said subspace;
adapting said subspace in accordance with changes in said scene;
adapting parameters of said dynamical model in accordance with changes in said scene so as to provide a prediction of said scene based on updating parameters of an autoregressive model thereof in an incremental manner;
determining differences between said prediction and said current image; and
outputting an indication of a new object when said differences meet predetermined criteria.
