Abstract

In this paper we introduce a model-based background subtraction approach where first silhouettes, which model the correlations between neightboring pixels are being learned and where then Bayesian propagation over time is used to select the proper silhouette model and tracking parameters. Bayes propagation is attractive in our application as it allows to deal with uncertainties in the video data during tracking. We eploy a particle filter for density estimation. We have extensively tested our approach on suitable outdoor video data.
