A Time-Consistent Video Segmentation Algorithm Designed for Real-Time Implementation

Figure 3

Description of the three steps of the segmentation process for the video “Table". (a) Gives the different values of the CDM. (b), (c), and (d) describe the evolution of the process of the edges 𝑎 with respectively 𝜑(𝑛,𝑎)=0,𝜑(𝑛,𝑎)=1, and 𝜑(𝑛,𝑎)=2. In these three last figures, black pixels are pixels that have not yet been classified, whereas white pixels correspond to region boundaries found at each step.

(a) The different values of CDM

(b) Segmentation of static regions (𝜑(𝑛,𝑎)=𝑜)

(c) CCL(𝜑(𝑛,𝑎)=1) and static regions

(d) Segmentation of changing pixels
