چکیده

Background elimination models are widely used in motion tracking systems. Our aim is to develop a system that performs reliably under adverse lighting conditions. In particular, this includes indoor scenes lit partly or entirely by diffuse natural light. We present a modified “median value” model in which the detection threshold adapts to global changes in illumination. The responses of several models are compared, demonstrating the effectiveness of the new model.

Detecting Moving Pedestrians and Vehicles in Fluctuating Lighting Conditions

Detecting moving pedestrians and vehicles with foreground segmentation algorithms is problematic during fluctuating lighting conditions. Edge-based approaches are more robust to lighting than the conventional intensity-based ones. The issue with edge-based approaches though is segmenting the internal foreground areas. In this work a strategy is developed to detect complete foreground areas. Fir...

Precise Object Contour Detection Using Variable Block-based Video Foreground Segmentation in Transform Domain

A precise object contour detection based on foreground segmentation in a video sequence is proposed. Our method employs a set of block-based Gaussian mixture models (GMM) on different block sizes, followed by foreground object contour extraction, which is based on Walsh transform (WT) domain. Every background model has different spatial and temporal correlations, and exploits WT-based feature p...

Enhancement of Learning Based Image Matting Method with Different Background/Foreground Weights

The problem of accurate foreground estimation in images is called Image Matting. In image matting methods, a map is used as learning data, which is produced by those pixels that are definitely foreground, definitely background ,and unknown. This three-level pixel map is often referred to as a trimap, which is produced manually in alpha matte datasets. The true class of unknown pixels will be es...
