Resumen
Traditional video object segmentation often has low detection speed and inaccurate results due to the jitter caused by the pan-and-tilt or hand-held devices. Deep neural network (DNN) has been widely adopted to address these problems; however, it relies on a large number of annotated data and high-performance computing units. Therefore, DNN is not suitable for some special scenarios (e.g., no prior knowledge or powerful computing ability). In this paper, we propose RoiSeg, an effective moving object segmentation approach based on Region-of-Interest (ROI), which utilizes unsupervised learning method to achieve automatic segmentation of moving objects. Specifically, we first hypothesize that the central n × n pixels of images act as the ROI to represent the features of the segmented moving object. Second, we pool the ROI to a central point of the foreground to simplify the segmentation problem into a classification problem based on ROI. Third but not the least, we implement a trajectory-based classifier and an online updating mechanism to address the classification problem and the compensation of class imbalance, respectively. We conduct extensive experiments to evaluate the performance of RoiSeg and the experimental results demonstrate that RoiSeg is more accurate and faster compared with other segmentation algorithms. Moreover, RoiSeg not only effectively handles ambient lighting changes, fog, salt and pepper noise, but also has a good ability to deal with camera jitter and windy scenes.
