Abstract

In view of the complex environment in the underground mine, the detection of moving targets in surveillance video often had the problems of low detection efficiency and the detection result was greatly affected by noise and shadows. A target extraction method based on fusion background subtraction, inter-frame difference and edge detection was proposed. Firstly, the method used the hybrid gaussian background modeling (GMM) to obtain the accurate background image of the dynamic environment, and the extracted moving targets by using background subtractiont. Then based on the three-frame differential and Canny edge detection, the foreground image and the moving object blob was obtained, which was combined with the background subtraction to eliminate noise and voids, and to avoid missed detection of the moving target. Finally, the shadows in the detection process were removed through pixel ratio and threshold screening, and morphological and connected domain processing were performed. Comparing the improved algorithm with the traditional algorithm, the test results show that the improved algorithm can effectively remove the noise and voids, suppress the shadow, avoid the missed detection target, and have a good detection effect.
