Adjacent LBP and LTP based background modeling with mixed-mode learning for foreground detection

摘要

Detection of video objects under bad weather and poor illumination condition is a challenging task. We address this issue using the notion of background modeling. LBP-based background modeling and model learning has been used to detect the video objects but performance degrades in the above complex background. We propose the adjacency- and reinforced adjacency-based variants of LBP for complex real-world background modeling and model learning for object detection. In this regard, we have proposed the four variants; (1) enhanced adjacent local binary pattern, (2) enhanced reinforced adjacent local binary pattern, (3) enhanced adjacent local ternary pattern, and (4) enhanced reinforced adjacent local ternary pattern. Besides, we have embedded the Gabor and LBP features to obtain an embedded feature, which is subsequently used with the notions of adjacency. Unlike the background learning approach where the model learns only the background, our model learning algorithm learns the background together with the foreground objects and hence named as mixed-mode learning strategy. These models together with the new learning strategy are tested with CD2014 (snowfall and blizzard) and PETS (2014 and 2016) data sets, and the performance of the proposed models has been compared with LBP-based methods and other state-of-the-art methods.
