Abstract

Foreground target detection algorithm (FTDA) is a fundamental preprocessing step in computer vision and video processing. A universal background subtraction algorithm for video sequences (ViBe) is a fast, simple, efficient and with optimal sample attenuation FTDA based on background modeling. However, the traditional ViBe has three limitations: (1) the noise problem under dynamic background; (2) the ghost problem; and (3) the target adhesion problem. In order to solve the three problems above, ant colony clustering is introduced and Ant_ViBe is proposed in this paper to improve the background modeling mechanism of the traditional ViBe, from the aspects of initial sample modeling, pheromone and ant colony update mechanism, and foreground segmentation criterion. Experimental results show that the Ant_ViBe greatly improved the noise resistance under dynamic background, eased the ghost and targets adhesion problem, and surpassed the typical algorithms and their fusion algorithms in most evaluation indexes.
