Abstract

Detection of objects for relocation in a video is a vital as well as initial step for many computer vision-based applications like moving object extraction, video surveillance, pattern classification, etc. The traditional methods used for detection of foreground objects include background subtraction, optical flow and frame differencing techniques. These methods are found to be advantageous only if the extraction of the moving object is precise and clearly visible that it is, the object must be of good quality. This paper emphasizes on the detection as well as the enhancement of the foreground objects. The proposed method uses the amalgam of two traditional techniques background subtraction and motion vector-based optical flow method along with morphological operators to extricate the nonstationary objects from the videos followed by the enhancement of the extracted object to be of better quality in terms of visibility. The proposed algorithm is executed over the videos having frame dimension of 640 × 360 along with the frame rate of 30 frames/second using MATLAB R2013.
