Abstract

This paper tackles the problem of robust change detection in image sequences from static cameras. Motion cues are detected using frame differencing with an adaptive background estimation modelled by a mixture of Gaussians. Illumination invariance and elimination or detection of shadows is achieved by using a colour chromaticity representation of the image data. The combination of the colour-and intensity-based models results in some promising applications.
