Abstract

Discrimination between the moving foreground objects and the complex dynamic background is a challenging task. In this paper, we have proposed a probabilistic graphical model – a recurrent stochastic network, which is able to learn the temporal and the spatial correlation from the video input data and make inference with a generalized belief propagation algorithm. Experiments have shown that the proposed recurrent network can model the dynamic backgrounds containing swaying trees, bushes and moving ocean waves. Very promising segmentation results have been obtained.
