This Special Issue offers an overview of ongoing research on intelligent video surveillance (IVS) techniques, and brings together cutting-edge research work on security and privacy problems with respect to technological, behavioral, legal, and cultural aspects. We received 34 submissions and each submission was rigorously reviewed by at least two experts in the related fields based on the criteria of originality, significance, quality, and clarity. Eventually, 12 papers were accepted for the Special Issue, spanning a variety of topics including privacy protection, background modeling, tracking, action/activity analysis, and crowd behavior perception. The papers constituting this issue are then briefly summarized.
