Abstract

Background subtraction is an important task in video processing and many algorithms are developed for solving this task. The vast majority uses the static behavior of the scene or texture information for separating foreground and background. In this paper we present a novel approach based on the integration of the unsteady vector field embedded in the video. Our method does not learn from the background and neither uses static behavior or texture for detecting the background. This solution is based on motion extraction from the scene by plane-curve intersection. The set of blobs generated by the algorithm are equipped with local motion information which can be used for further image analysis tasks. The proposed approach has been evaluated with a standard benchmark with competitive results against state of the art methods.
