Abstract: An energy management method is provided. The energy management method comprises the steps of retrieving load information from at least one load and retrieving energy-supplying information from an energy supply system having a grid power source, a renewable energy generation module and an energy storage module to instantly calculate first and second energy thresholds. When an energy production of the renewable energy generation module is smaller than the second energy threshold, the grid power source or the energy storage module is controlled to supply energy to the load. When the energy production is between the first and the second energy thresholds, the renewable energy generation module is controlled to supply energy to the load. When the energy production is larger than the first energy threshold, the renewable energy generation module is controlled to supply energy to the load and charge the energy storage module.

Abstract: A method for foreground detection using multi-modality fusion graph cut includes the following steps. A video frame of a video sequence is inputted. A foreground region in the video frame is designated using adaptive background Gaussian Mixture Model and a threshold value. The foreground region is segmented using a multi-modality fusion graph cut procedure. A computer program product using the method and a system for foreground detection using multi-modality fusion graph cut are also disclosed herein.
