Abstract

Nowadays, more attention is being focused on background subtraction methods regarding their importance in many computer vision applications. Most of the proposed approaches are classified as pixel-based due to their low complexity and processing speed. Other methods are considered as spatiotemporal-based as they consider the surroundings of each analyzed pixel. In this context, we propose a new texture descriptor that is suitable for this task. We benefit from the advantages of local binary patterns variants to introduce a novel spatio-temporal center-symmetric local derivative patterns (STCS-LDP). Several improvements and restrictions are set in the neighboring pixels comparison level, to make the descriptor less sensitive to noise while maintaining robustness to illumination changes. We also present a simple background subtraction algorithm which is based on our STCS-LDP descriptor. Experiments on multiple video sequences proved that our method is efficient and produces comparable results to the state of the art.
