Detailed Description

Base class for background/foreground segmentation. :

The class is only used to define the common interface for the whole family of background/foreground segmentation algorithms.

Member Function Documentation

apply()

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

pure virtual

Python:
	cv.BackgroundSubtractor.apply(	image[, fgmask[, learningRate]]	) ->	fgmask

Computes a foreground mask.

Parameters

image	Next video frame.
fgmask	The output foreground mask as an 8-bit binary image.
learningRate	The 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.

Implemented in cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2, cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorCNT, cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorGMG, cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorGSOC, and cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorLSBP.

getBackgroundImage()

virtual void cv::BackgroundSubtractor::getBackgroundImage ( OutputArray backgroundImage ) const

pure virtual

Python:
	cv.BackgroundSubtractor.getBackgroundImage(	[, backgroundImage]	) ->	backgroundImage

Computes a background image.

Parameters

backgroundImage

The output background image.

Note

Sometimes the background image can be very blurry, as it contain the average background statistics.

Implemented in cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorCNT, cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorGMG, cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorGSOC, and cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorLSBP.
