Abstract:
1. A computer readable storage media containing computer readable instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform: determining one or more motion parameters of a motion model by fitting the motion model to a distribution of temporal derivatives or spatial gradients of training pixels from a set of training images, individual training pixels from the set of training images having previously been labeled as foreground or background training pixels; determining a motion likelihood for input pixels of an input image, the motion likelihood being determined using the one or more motion parameters of the motion model without a velocity of the input pixels; determining a color likelihood for segmenting the input pixels of the input image; and automatically generating segmentation indicators for the input pixels of the input image based on the motion likelihood and the color likelihood, the segmentation indicators indicating whether individual input pixels are foreground input pixels or background input pixels.
