Moving object detection and shadow removal based on background reconstruction
Fu Yong · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2010
An approach to detect moving object and remove shadow with a static camera is proposed,which uses the block background reconstruction based on average intensity and image energy to update the background,associated with background subtraction,connected component detection as well as morphologic filter to achieve the moving object detection and then the edge information of the shadow which is implemented by edge detection algorithm is used to detect and remove the candidate shadow region.The experimental result indicates the method is effective in detecting moving target and suppressing shadow.
