Claim One:
1. A method for recognizing an object in an image generated by a video monitoring system, the video monitoring system including a processor, the method comprising: providing, in the processor, a first scaling stage of a scaling region of the image, and at least one further scaling stage of the scaling region of the image; subdividing the image, with the processor, into at least one image segment; making, with the processor, a first decision for the at least one image segment on the first scaling stage of the scaling region as to determine whether or not the at least one image segment should be further scaled by scaling stage of the scaling region; and before the first decision, a second decision is taken for the at least one image segment on the first scaling stage of the scaling region as to whether the at least one image segment is considered for the first decision.
