Embodiment Construction

[0043] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the described embodiments are only intended to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, rather than limiting it in any way.

[0044] figure 1 is a flowchart of the real-time replacement method for complex backgrounds. According to flow sequence, the specific implementation process of each step of the inventive method is as follows:

[0045] 1. Read the video stream

[0046] The system first obtains video stream data. There are two sources of video data acquisition: one is the image sequence captured by the camera in real time. The second is the video files collected in advance.

[0047] 2. Background learning, constructing a fusion background model

[0048] (21) Learn N-frame image sequences; generally learn 40-80 frames, about 2s;

[0049](22) Establish a feature background based on brightness information: By learning N fram...

Abstract

The invention provides a complex background real-time alternating method based on background modeling and energy minimization, comprising the steps of: firstly, segmenting a current frame image into a foreground pixel set, a background pixel set and an unknown label pixel set by using a provided fusion background model; secondly, constructing a target energy function according to the color and contrast information under a dynamic diagram cutting frame, designing a data item of the fusion background model based on time continuity information and a contrast smooth item based on a local two-value mode, solving two-value labels of all pixels by using a diagram cutting algorithm minimization energy function; and seamlessly fusing segmented foreground targets into a virtual background by adopting postprocessing methods of boundary smooth, alpha value estimation and the like. Experimental results show that the method can better segment the targets in the complex background in real time and really synthesize the segmented targets into the virtual background. The invention has the characteristics of automatically segmenting the complex background in real time and replacing the segmented complex background into the virtual background to obtain a virtual effect sequence diagram with high quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of image processing and computer vision, in particular to a method for accurately segmenting and replacing complex backgrounds in video streams in real time. Background technique [0002] At present, video object segmentation methods can be divided into interactive segmentation and automatic segmentation algorithms. The interactive video target segmentation algorithm refers to intervening the algorithm with the help of user interaction information in the segmentation process to improve the segmentation effect. Although the interactive segmentation technology has made great progress, there are still some problems. For example, the interaction is cumbersome, the workload is heavy, and there are certain skills in the interaction. The quality of the interaction directly affects the final segmentation effect; the automatic segmentation algorithm does not need manual intervention in the segmentation process, and automatic...
