Overview

This library containing 7 popular background subtraction algorithms:

  • adaptive median filtering
  • eigenbackground
  • single Gaussian
  • Gaussian mixture models
  • adaptive Gaussian mixture models
  • running mean
  • mediod filtering

This library makes use of OpenCV.

Building with CMake

$ mkdir _build
$ cd _build
$ cmake ..
$ make

Building Python Interface

  1. Install OpenCV with Python bindings enabled.

  2. Edit include_dirs in the setup.py.

  3. Build the cython module:

     $ pip install numpy cython
     $ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
    
  4. Test the module using stream from the webcam:

     $ python pybgs_test.py
