| Abstract | ||
| Extracting moving object from video sequence is one of the most important steps in the video-based analysis. Background subtraction is the most commonly used moving object detection methods in video, in which the extracted object will be feed to a higher-level process ( i.e. object localization, object tracking ). The main requirement of background subtraction method is to construct a stationary background model and then to compare every new coming frame with it in order to detect the moving object. Relied on the supposition that the background occurs with the higher appearance frequency, a proposed background reconstruction algorithm has been presented based on pixel intensity classification ( PIC ) approach. First, pixel intensity in a predetermined time period has been classified according to a proposed clustering method, second, pixels frequency of those clusters has been calculated, finally, the center of the cluster with the higher pixel frequency has been chosen as the background pixel intensity value. The efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm has been confirmed through comparing its results with those of the most common traditional methods, besides , the results of the proposed algorithm in a number of testing environment which are traffic monitoring and pedestrian surveillance shows that the proposed algorithm can save space and economize computation time and give good accuracy. | ||
