In this paper, a moving object surveillance system, which can extract moving object in real-time, using image subtraction method is described. This technique based on the novelty filter having the structure of neural network associative memory. Digital arithmetic and timing control parts were composed of hardwired controller to treat two-dimensional massive image information. SRAMS having 20 ns access time were used for the image buffer that has high speed write/read property. Image extraction algorithm is discussed and supported by simulation and experiments.

Background subtraction is the first processing stage in video surveillance. It is a general term for a process which aims to separate foreground objects from a background. The goal is to construct and maintain a statistical representation of the scene that the camera sees. The output of background subtraction will be an input to a higher-level process. Background subtraction under dynamic environment in the video sequences is one such complex task. It is an important research topic in image analysis and computer vision domains. This work deals background modeling based on modified adaptive Gaussian mixture model (GMM) with three temporal differencing (TTD) method in dynamic environment. The results of background subtraction on several sequences in various testing environments show that the proposed method is efficient and robust for the dynamic environment and achieves good accuracy.

The segmentation of moving object in video sequence is a core technique of intelligent image processing system such as video surveillance, traffic monitoring and human tracking. A typical method to segment a moving region from the background is the background subtraction. The steps of background subtraction involve calculating a reference image, subtracting new frame from reference image and then thresholding the subtracted result. One of famous background modeling is Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Even though the method is known efficient and exact, GMM suffers from a problem that includes false pixels in ROI (region of interest), specifically shadow pixels. These false pixels cause fail of the post-processing tasks such as tracking and object recognition. This paper presents a method for removing false pixels included in ROT. First, we subdivide a ROI by using shape characteristics of detected objects. Then, a method is proposed to classify pixels from using histogram characteristic and comparing difference of energy that converts the color value of pixel into grayscale value, in order to estimate whether the pixels belong to moving object area or shadow area. The method is applied to real video sequence and the performance is verified.

Moving object segmentation from a nonstationary camera is a difficult problem due to the motion of both camera and the object. In this paper, we propose a new confidence-based background subtraction technique from moving camera. The method is based on clustering of motion vectors and generating adaptive multi-homography from a pair of adjacent video frames. The main innovation concerns the use of confidence images for each foreground and background motion groups. Experimental results revealed that our confidence-based approach robustly detect moving targets in sequences taken by a freely moving camera.

본 논문은 도로상에 설치한 고정 카메라로부터 획득된 비디오 영상으로부터 이동물체를 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 배경과 입력 비디오 프레임에서 가우시안 피라미드를 사용한 배경 차영상 기법에 기반하며, 입력 비디오 프레임과 배경영상의 오정합으로 발생하는 오검출을 줄이는데 화소기반 방법에 비해 효과적이다. 차영상에서 임계값을 효과적으로 결정하기위하여 각 프레임에서 Otsu의 방법으로 계산된 임계값에 스칼라 칼만필터를 적용하여 필터링하였다. 실험 결과 도로 비디오 영상에서 움직이는 물체를 효과적으로 검출함을 보였다.

This paper introduces a mixture of background subtraction technique and K-Means clustering algorithm for removing shadows from video sequences. Lighting conditions cause an issue with segmentation. The proposed method can successfully eradicate artifacts associated with lighting changes such as highlight and reflection, and cast shadows of moving object from segmentation. In this paper, K-Means clustering algorithm is applied to the foreground, which is initially fragmented by background subtraction technique. The estimated shadow region is then superimposed on the background to eliminate the effects that cause redundancy in object detection. Simulation results depict that the proposed approach is capable of removing shadows and reflections from moving objects with an accuracy of more than 95% in every cases considered.

연속 영상을 이용하여 실시간으로 움직임 객체를 추출하고 추적하기 위해 배경분리(Background Subtraction) 기법을 주로 사용한다. 외부 환경에서는 조명 조건의 변화, 나무의 흔들림과 같은 반복적인 움직임 그리고 급격히 움직이는 객체 등과 같이 고려해야할 많은 환경 변화 요인들이 존재한다. 이러한 외부 환경의 변화를 적응적으로 반영하여 배경을 분리할 수 있는 배경 모델로는 주로 가우시안 혼합 모델 (GMM: Gaussian Mixture Model)이 적용되고 있으며, 실시간 성능 등을 개선시킨 적응적 가우시안 혼합 모델 등이 제안되어 사용되고 있다. 본 논문은 개선된 적응적 가우시안 혼합 모델을 적용하고 고정된 학습률 a(일반적으로 작은 값)을 사용함으로써 물체의 갑작스러운 움직임 등에 빠르게 적응하지 못하는 문제점을 해결하기 위해 가우시안 분포 수의 적응적 조절 기능과 픽셀 값의 분산 등을 이용하여 학습률 a값을 동적으로 제어하는 방법을 제안하고 성능을 평가하였다.

We present a scalable object tracking framework, which is capable of removing shadows and tracking the people. The framework consists of background subtraction, fuzzy based shadow removal and boundary tracking algorithm. This work proposes a general-purpose method that combines statistical assumptions with the object-level knowledge of moving objects, apparent objects, and shadows acquired in the processing of the previous frames. Pixels belonging to moving objects and shadows are processed differently in order to supply an object-based selective update. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is able to track the object boundaries under significant shadows with noise and background clutter.

Accurate forest fires detection algorithms remain a challenging issue, because, some of the objects have the same features with fire, which may result in high false alarms rate. This paper presents a new video-based, image processing forest fires detection method, which consists of four stages. First, a background-subtraction algorithm is applied to detect moving regions. Secondly, candidate fire regions are determined using CIE $L{\ast}a{\ast}b{\ast}$ color space. Thirdly, special wavelet analysis is used to differentiate between actual fire and fire-like objects, because candidate regions may contain moving fire-like objects. Finally, support vector machine is used to classify the region of interest to either real fire or non-fire. The final experimental results verify that the proposed method effectively identifies the forest fires.
