Estimation of Dynamic Background and Object Detection in Noisy Visual Surveillance
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Dynamic background subtraction in noisy environment for detecting object is a challenging process in computer vision. The proposed algorithm has been used to identify moving objects from the sequence of video frames which contains dynamically changing backgrounds in the noisy atmosphere. There are many challenges in achieving a robust background subtraction algorithm in the external noisy environment. In connection with our previous work, in this paper, we have proposed a methodology to perform background subtraction from moving vehicles in traffic video sequences that combines statistical assumptions of moving objects using the previous frames in the dynamically varying noisy situation. Background image is frequently updated in order to achieve reliability of the motion detection. For that, a binary moving objects hypothesis mask is constructed to classify any group of lattices as being from a moving object based on the optimal threshold. Then, the new incoming information is integrated into the current background image using a Kalman filter. In order to improve the performance, a post-processing has been done. It has been accomplished by shadow and noise removal algorithms operating at the lattice which identifies object-level elements. The results of post-processing can be used to detect object more efficiently. Experimental results and analysis show the prominence of the proposed approach which has achieved an average of 94% accuracy in real-time acquired images.
