Improved Motion Segmentation Based on Shadow Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we discuss common colour models for background subtraction and problems related to their utilisation are discussed. A novel approach to represent chrominance information more suitable for robust background modelling and shadow suppression is proposed. Our method relies on the ability to represent colours in terms of a 3D-polar coordinate system having saturation independent of the brightness function; specifically, we build upon an Improved Hue, Luminance, and Saturation space (IHLS). The additional peculiarity of the approach is that we deal with the problem of unstable hue values at low saturation by modelling the hue-saturation relationship using saturation-weighted hue statistics. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown in an experimental comparison with approaches based on RGB, Normalised RGB and HSV.

A multi-scale convolutional neural network for automatic cloud and cloud shadow detection from Gaofen-1 images
The reconstruction of the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow is an important step in pre-processing of high-resolution satellite images. The cloud and cloud shadow automatic segmentation could be the first step in the process of reconstructing the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow. This stage is a remarkable challenge due to the relatively inefficient performanc...
متن کاملChromatic shadow detection and tracking for moving foreground segmentation
Advanced segmentation techniques in the surveillance domain deal with shadows to avoid distortions when detecting moving objects. Most approaches for shadow detection are still typically restricted to penumbra shadows and cannot cope well with umbra shadows. Consequently, umbra shadow regions are usually detected as part of moving objects, thus affecting the performance of the final detection. ...
متن کاملMethod of Updating Shadow Model for Shadow Detection based on Nonparametric Bayesian Estimation
Detecting shadows is needed for object detection methods because shadows often have a harmful effect on the result. Shadow detection methods based on shadow models are proposed. The shadow model should be updated to detect shadows which are not included in the learning data. In this paper, a new method for updating the shadow model for shadow detection is proposed. The proposed method models sh...

Aiming at the traditional Gaussian mixture model has poor adaptability to the complex scenes, we proposes an improved moving object detection algorithm based on Gaussian mixture model and HSV space. The motion region is first extracted by the improved three-frame difference method. With the matching results, region segmentation of current frame is realized. Then different regions adopt differen...
متن کاملSpatio-temporal Shadow Segmentation and Tracking
Shadow segmentation is a critical issue for systems aiming at extracting, tracking or recognizing objects in a given scene. Shadows can in fact modify the shape and colour of objects and therefore affect scene analysis and interpretation systems in many applications, such as video database search and retrieval, as well as video analysis in applications such as video surveillance. We present a s...
