A system may be configured to accurately track shelf activity in real-time with support for dynamic shelf size, configuration, and item containment. In some aspects, the system may parse regions of a video frame to determine a region of interest representation corresponding to a physical location (e.g., a shelf compartment), determine an enhanced region of interest representation based at least in part on the region of interest representation and an image enhancement pipeline, determine edge information of one or more objects based on the enhanced region of interest representation, compare a reference representation of the physical location to the edge information, and determine the amount of available space for the physical location based on the comparing.
