Abstract

This paper presents a robust foreground detection method capable of adapting to different motion speeds in scenes. A key contribution of this paper is the background estimation using a proposed novel algorithm, neighbor-based intensity correction (NIC), that identifies and modifies the motion pixels from the difference of the background and the current frame. Concretely, the first frame is considered as an initial background that is updated with the pixel intensity from each new frame based on the examination of neighborhood pixels. These pixels are formed into windows generated from the background and the current frame to identify whether a pixel belongs to the background or the current frame. The intensity modification procedure is based on the comparison of the standard deviation values calculated from two pixel windows. The robustness of the current background is further measured using pixel steadiness as an additional condition for the updating process. Finally, the foreground is detected by the background subtraction scheme with an optimal threshold calculated by the Otsu method. This method is benchmarked on several well-known data sets in the object detection and tracking domain, such as CAVIAR 2004, AVSS 2007, PETS 2009, PETS 2014, and CDNET 2014. We also compare the accuracy of the proposed method with other state-of-the-art methods via standard quantitative metrics under different parameter configurations. In the experiments, NIC approach outperforms several advanced methods on depressing the detected foreground confusions due to light artifact, illumination change, and camera jitter in dynamic scenes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
