Multiplicative Background-Foreground Estimation Under Uncontrolled Illuminsation Using Intrinsic Images

چکیده
Instead of the conventional background and foreground definition, we propose a novel method that decomposes a scene into time-varying background and foreground intrinsic images.

Multiclass Road Sign Detection using Multiplicative Kernel
We consider the problem of multiclass road sign detection using a classification function with multiplicative kernel comprised from two kernels. We show that problems of detection and within-foreground classification can be jointly solved by using one kernel to measure object-background differences and another one to account for within-class variations. The main idea behind this approach is tha...
متن کاملEnhancement of Learning Based Image Matting Method with Different Background/Foreground Weights
The problem of accurate foreground estimation in images is called Image Matting. In image matting methods, a map is used as learning data, which is produced by those pixels that are definitely foreground, definitely background ,and unknown. This three-level pixel map is often referred to as a trimap, which is produced manually in alpha matte datasets. The true class of unknown pixels will be es...
متن کاملMultiplicative intrinsic component optimization (MICO) for MRI bias field estimation and tissue segmentation.
This paper proposes a new energy minimization method called multiplicative intrinsic component optimization (MICO) for joint bias field estimation and segmentation of magnetic resonance (MR) images. The proposed method takes full advantage of the decomposition of MR images into two multiplicative components, namely, the true image that characterizes a physical property of the tissues and the bi...
متن کاملRobust background estimation for complex video sequences
Knowing the background image of a video scene simplifies the general video-object segmentation problem and therefore it is required by several automatic segmentation algorithms. This paper presents a new background estimation algorithm which is applicable to complex video sequences where many objects are simultaneously visible and the background is visible for a short time period only. The algo...
متن کاملThermal imaging for enhanced foreground background segmentation
Foreground background segmentation is the primary step of most automated video monitoring system aiming at object tracking, event detection or scene interpretation. In uncontrolled environments, with dynamic background and lighting changes, this basic task is very challenging. This work is based on the hypothesis that the combination of LWIR (8-12 m) and colour cameras can significantly impr...
