Foreground Object Detection Using Two Successive Images

Detecting foreground object often need to face the problems of illumination change and image noise. In this paper, we propose an object detection method using two successive image frames. Illumination change would be very small in such short time, and then we can handle the first problem more easily. Image noise will confuse the detection of an object boundary. To handle this problem, we apply level set method to enclose the foreground object regions. The experiments show that our method can be applied to extract foreground objects in various environments and different cameras.
