  • Foreground detection using fractal dimensional measures
    Patent number: 9916662
    Abstract: A technique for foreground determination includes analyzing pixels that are deemed to be changing between frames, and applying a filtration technique that is based on fractal methods. Implementations include applying a filter that is designed to eliminate structures of dimensionality less than unity while preserving those of dimensionality unity and greater. The technique may be performed in real-time and makes use of a variable threshold for foreground determination and image segmentation techniques.
