Zhang Huan, An Guocheng, Zhang Fengjun, Wang Hongan, Dai Guozhong. Moving human detection algorithm with merging of multiple color space[J]. Journal of Image and Graphics, 2011, 16(10): 1944-1950. DOI: 10.11834/jig.20111023.
When the color of a moving human is similar to the color of the background
one single color space can not very vell describe the differences between the moving human and the background.Faced with this problem
we propose a multi-color space merging strategy. Moving human detection is conducted separately by finding channels which have the best performance
based on a single channel of color space. Moving human detection then can be concluded by merging these channels. Moreover to solve the dynamic background problem
we designed a background updating algorithm which depends on temporal differencing and refreshing. Experiments confirm that in a complex environment
results of our algorithm are better than test results of the algorithm based on a single color space. The algorithm also can deal with dynamic backgrounds effectively.
