چکیده

A system is described that provides robust and real-time focus-of-attention for tracking and segmentation of multicoloured objects. Gaussian mixture models were used to estimate the probability densities of object foreground and scene background colours. Tracking was performed by tting dynamic bounding boxes to image regions of maximum probability. Two scenarios are presented: (1) real-time face tracking based upon a skin colour model and (2) dynamic body segmen-tation for virtual studios based upon combined foreground and background models.

Adaptive Gaussian Mixture Model for Skin Color Segmentation

Skin color based tracking techniques often assume a static skin color model obtained either from an offline set of library images or the first few frames of a video stream. These models can show a weak performance in presence of changing lighting or imaging conditions. We propose an adaptive skin color model based on the Gaussian mixture model to handle the changing conditions. Initial estimati...

IMAGE SEGMENTATION USING GAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL

  Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we have learned Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model have estimated by EM-algorithm.   In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image is made by Bayes rule. In fact, ...

GrabCut-Based Human Segmentation in Video Sequences

In this paper, we present a fully-automatic Spatio-Temporal GrabCut human segmentation methodology that combines tracking and segmentation. GrabCut initialization is performed by a HOG-based subject detection, face detection, and skin color model. Spatial information is included by Mean Shift clustering whereas temporal coherence is considered by the historical of Gaussian Mixture Models. Moreo...

An Object-driven Online Segmentation System for Mobile Robots

In this paper we propose an object-driven online segmentation system for mobile robots. Among existing tracking and segmentation methods, the methods themselves are highly emphasized while properties of objects are usually not exploited enough. We propose an adaptive selection mechanism based on the properties of the objects to automatically choose an optimal tracking algorithm. For textured ob...
