A Nonparametric Approach to Foreground Detection in Dynamic Backgrounds

Foreground detection is a fundamental step in visual surveillance.However,accurate foreground detection is still a challenging task especially in dynamic backgrounds.In this paper,we present a nonparametric approach to foreground detection in dynamic backgrounds.It uses a history of recently pixel values to estimate background model.Besides,the adaptive threshold and spatial coherence are introduced to enhance robustness against false detections.Experimental results indicate that our approach achieves better performance in dynamic backgrounds compared with several approaches.

动态背景下基于改进视觉背景提取的前景检测

由于视觉背景提取算法(ViBe)对存在动态背景的户外视频的前景检测结果依然不够精确,故提出了一种改进的ViBe算法。文中描述了经典ViBe算法及其特点;介绍了改进的ViBe算法针对动态背景的改进措施。该算法采用多帧连续图像初始化背景模型,降低了单帧图像初始化所产生的"鬼影"对前景检测精度的影响;在匹配过程中,引入自适应的匹配阈值,克服了单个的全局阈值对动态背景适应能力差的问题;最后,在更新过程引入空间一致性判断与模糊准则来减少算法的误检,提高了算法的鲁棒性。实验结果表明,该算法可以有效地检测动态背景下的运动目标,检测准确率比经典ViBe算法提高了20%以上。
