This paper deals with an efficient background subtraction of image/frames of video by improving the execution speed, accuracy and reduce the usage of memory.Three important techniques are applied to improve the efficiency: superpixel extraction, canny edge detection and fuzzy c means.On applying the above three methods sequentially, the background of image/video can be segmented from foreground object accurately.The first method reduces the processing data more than 75%.Canny edge detection is an optimized method to detect edges.Fuzzy c means works well and good to segment the overlapped objects in an image/video.
