Robust and fast moving object detection in a non-stationary camera via foreground probability based sampling

摘要

This paper proposes a robust and fast scheme to detect moving objects in a non-stationary camera. The state-of-the art methods still do not give a satisfactory performance due to drastic frame changes in a non-stationary camera. To improve the robustness in performance, we additionally use the spatio-temporal properties of moving objects. We build the foreground probability map which reflects the spatio-temporal properties, then we selectively apply the detection procedure and update the background model only to the selected pixels using the foreground probability. The foreground probability is also used to refine the initial detection results to obtain a clear foreground region. We compare our scheme quantitatively and qualitatively to the state-of-the-art methods in the detection quality and speed. The experimental results show that our scheme outperforms all other compared methods.
