Background Subtraction in Video Using Recursive Mixture Models, Spatio-Temporal Filtering and Shadow Removal

چکیده
We describe our approach to segmenting moving objects from the color video data supplied by a nominally stationary camera. There are two main contributions in our work. The first contribution augments Zivkovic and Heijden’s recursively updated Gaussian mixture model approach, with a multidimensional Gaussian kernel spatio-temporal smoothing transform. We show that this improves the segmentation performance of the original approach, particularly in adverse imaging conditions, such as when there is camera vibration. Our second contribution is to present a comprehensive comparative evaluation of shadow and highlight detection appoaches, which is an essential component of background subtraction in unconstrained outdoor scenes. A comparative evelaution of these approaches over different color-spaces is currently lacking in the literature. We show that both segmentation and shadow removal performs best when we use RGB color spaces.

A PRACTICAL APPROACH TO REAL-TIME DYNAMIC BACKGROUND GENERATION BASED ON A TEMPORAL MEDIAN FILTER
In many computer vision applications, segmenting and extraction of moving objects in video sequences is an essential task. Background subtraction, by which each input image is subtracted from the reference image, has often been used for this purpose. In this paper, we offer a novel background-subtraction technique for real-time dynamic background generation using color images that are taken fro...

This paper presents an efficient approach for moving objects detection and shadow removal from color videos obtained using stationary camera. A background subtraction technique based on modified adaptive GMM has been proposed for detecting moving objects. Speed-up techniques have also been applied to enhance the computational efficiency of the algorithm. Then, a robust algorithm for shadow remo...
متن کاملHuman Object Tracking using Background Subtraction and Shadow Removal Technique
The main objective of this paper is to develop multiple human object tracking approach based on motion estimation and detection, background subtraction, shadow removal and occlusion detection. A reference frame is initially used and considered as background information. While a new object enters into the frame, the foreground information and background information are identified using the refer...

In this paper, detection and tracking of moving object with shadow removal, automated counting and alarm generation was proposed. Improved Gaussian mixture model was used for background subtraction and modeling as it robustly deals with lighting changes, repetitive motions, clutter and slowly moving objects. Shadow detection and removal was performed using improved HSV color space method. Morph...
متن کاملMAPTrack - A Probabilistic Real Time Tracking Framework by Integrating Motion, Appearance and Position Models
In this paper, we present MAPTrack a robust tracking framework that uses a probabilistic scheme to combine a motion model of an object with that of its appearance and an estimation of its position. The motion of the object is modelled using the Gaussian Mixture Background Subtraction algorithm, the appearance of the tracked object is enumerated using a color histogram and the projected location...
