Robust foreground detection is a fundamental precursor of many video processing applications. Although various approaches were advanced, there still exist many factors making detection very challenging: 1) Dynamic background with gradual brightness changes, camera movement and large amount of noises. 2) Sharp illumination changes caused by shadows, light on-off, and so on. 3) Real-time requirement for practical systems. To overcome these problems, a new approach is proposed in this paper. It is based on the background of conventional Gaussian Mixed Model, incorporating tempo-spatial consistency validation to search genuine foreground seeds, so that foreground segments can be reliably acquired using region growth method. Experiments demonstrate that our approach achieves better performance than conventional GMM approach in detection accuracy, adaptability to sudden illumination changes and computation time. |
