We present a stochastic tracking algorithm for surveillance video where targets are dim and at low resolution. The algorithm builds motion models for both background and foregroun...
For Motion Picture Special Effects, it is often necessary to take a source image of an actor, segment the actor from the unwanted background, and then composite over a new backgro...
In this paper, we propose a level set based energy functional, the minimization of which results in simultaneous background modeling, foreground segmentation, and contour smoothin...

A classical problem of imaging--the matting problem--is separation of a non-rectangular foreground image from a (usually) rectangular background image--for example, in a film fram...
Knowing the background image of a video scene simplifies the general video-object segmentation problem and therefore it is required by several automatic segmentation algorithms. T...
