Detailed Description

Gaussian Mixture-based Background/Foreground Segmentation Algorithm.

The class implements the Gaussian mixture model background subtraction described in [211] and [210] .

Member Function Documentation

§ apply()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::apply ( InputArray  image,
OutputArray  fgmask,
double  learningRate = -1 
)
pure virtual

Computes a foreground mask.

Parameters
imageNext video frame. Floating point frame will be used without scaling and should be in range \([0,255]\).
fgmaskThe output foreground mask as an 8-bit binary image.
learningRateThe value between 0 and 1 that indicates how fast the background model is learnt. Negative parameter value makes the algorithm to use some automatically chosen learning rate. 0 means that the background model is not updated at all, 1 means that the background model is completely reinitialized from the last frame.

Implements cv::BackgroundSubtractor.

Examples:
segment_objects.cpp.

§ getBackgroundRatio()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getBackgroundRatio ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the "background ratio" parameter of the algorithm.

If a foreground pixel keeps semi-constant value for about backgroundRatio*history frames, it's considered background and added to the model as a center of a new component. It corresponds to TB parameter in the paper.

§ getComplexityReductionThreshold()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getComplexityReductionThreshold ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the complexity reduction threshold.

This parameter defines the number of samples needed to accept to prove the component exists. CT=0.05 is a default value for all the samples. By setting CT=0 you get an algorithm very similar to the standard Stauffer&Grimson algorithm.

§ getDetectShadows()

virtual bool cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getDetectShadows ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the shadow detection flag.

If true, the algorithm detects shadows and marks them. See createBackgroundSubtractorMOG2 for details.

§ getHistory()

virtual int cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getHistory ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the number of last frames that affect the background model.

§ getNMixtures()

virtual int cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getNMixtures ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the number of gaussian components in the background model.

§ getShadowThreshold()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getShadowThreshold ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the shadow threshold.

A shadow is detected if pixel is a darker version of the background. The shadow threshold (Tau in the paper) is a threshold defining how much darker the shadow can be. Tau= 0.5 means that if a pixel is more than twice darker then it is not shadow. See Prati, Mikic, Trivedi and Cucchiara, Detecting Moving Shadows...*, IEEE PAMI,2003.

§ getShadowValue()

virtual int cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getShadowValue ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the shadow value.

Shadow value is the value used to mark shadows in the foreground mask. Default value is 127. Value 0 in the mask always means background, 255 means foreground.

§ getVarInit()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getVarInit ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the initial variance of each gaussian component.

§ getVarMax()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getVarMax ( ) const
pure virtual

§ getVarMin()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getVarMin ( ) const
pure virtual

§ getVarThreshold()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getVarThreshold ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the variance threshold for the pixel-model match.

The main threshold on the squared Mahalanobis distance to decide if the sample is well described by the background model or not. Related to Cthr from the paper.

§ getVarThresholdGen()

virtual double cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::getVarThresholdGen ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns the variance threshold for the pixel-model match used for new mixture component generation.

Threshold for the squared Mahalanobis distance that helps decide when a sample is close to the existing components (corresponds to Tg in the paper). If a pixel is not close to any component, it is considered foreground or added as a new component. 3 sigma => Tg=3*3=9 is default. A smaller Tg value generates more components. A higher Tg value may result in a small number of components but they can grow too large.

§ setBackgroundRatio()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setBackgroundRatio ( double  ratio)
pure virtual

Sets the "background ratio" parameter of the algorithm.

§ setComplexityReductionThreshold()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setComplexityReductionThreshold ( double  ct)
pure virtual

Sets the complexity reduction threshold.

§ setDetectShadows()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setDetectShadows ( bool  detectShadows)
pure virtual

Enables or disables shadow detection.

§ setHistory()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setHistory ( int  history)
pure virtual

Sets the number of last frames that affect the background model.

§ setNMixtures()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setNMixtures ( int  nmixtures)
pure virtual

Sets the number of gaussian components in the background model.

The model needs to be reinitalized to reserve memory.

§ setShadowThreshold()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setShadowThreshold ( double  threshold)
pure virtual

Sets the shadow threshold.

§ setShadowValue()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setShadowValue ( int  value)
pure virtual

Sets the shadow value.

§ setVarInit()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setVarInit ( double  varInit)
pure virtual

Sets the initial variance of each gaussian component.

§ setVarMax()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setVarMax ( double  varMax)
pure virtual

§ setVarMin()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setVarMin ( double  varMin)
pure virtual

§ setVarThreshold()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setVarThreshold ( double  varThreshold)
pure virtual

Sets the variance threshold for the pixel-model match.

Examples:
segment_objects.cpp.

§ setVarThresholdGen()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2::setVarThresholdGen ( double  varThresholdGen)
pure virtual

Sets the variance threshold for the pixel-model match used for new mixture component generation.
