چکیده

Background subtraction is one of the main techniques to extract moving objects from background scenes. A mixture of Gaussians is a common model for background subtraction. There are several parameters involved in such a model. Obviously, the assignment of initial values to these parameters affects the accuracy of background subtraction. In this paper, we analyze in detail the impact of different initial parameter values based on our model implementation. Both indoor and outdoor video sequences have been tested. This parameter value analysis provides suggestions how to choose suitable initial parameter values, assign reasonable thresholds which ensure better results, while using a mixture of Gaussians model in video surveillance applications.

­­Image Segmentation using Gaussian Mixture Model

Abstract: 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 used Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model were estimated by EM-algorithm.   In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image was made by Bayes rule. In fact,...

A Dynamic Merge-or-Split Learning Algorithm on Gaussian Mixture for Automated Model Selection

Gaussian mixture modelling is a powerful tool for data analysis. However, the selection of number of Gaussians in the mixture, i.e., the mixture model or scale selection, remains a difficult problem. In this paper, we propose a new kind of dynamic merge-or-split learning (DMOSL) algorithm on Gaussian mixture such that the number of Gaussians can be determined automatically with a dynamic merge-...

Advanced Acoustic Modeling with the Hybrid HMM/BN Framework

Most of the current state-of-the-art speech recognition systems are based on HMMs which usually use mixture of Gaussian functions as state probability distribution model. It is a common practice to use EM algorithm for Gaussian mixture parameter learning. In this case, the learning is done in a ”blind”, data-driven way without taking into account how the speech signal has been produced and whic...

Automated Tissue Classification of noisy MR Images of the Brain Using Constrained Multiple Multivariate Gaussian Mixture Model (CGMM)

We present a fully automated algorithm for tissue segmentation of noisy, low contrast magnetic resonance (MR) images of the brain. We use a mixture model composed of a large number of Gaussians to represent the brain image. Each tissue is represented by a large number of the Gaussian components in order to capture the complex tissue spatial layout. The intensity of a tissue is considered a glob...
