Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and device for detecting images are used to improve a detection rate and accuracy rate of the image moving target detection, so that moving targets also can be accurately detected in a scenario with complicated illumination changes. The method for detecting the images includes: collecting an image, performing moving target detection on the image by using a preset mixed space-time background model, and determining a target image; wherein, the mixed space-time background model is obtained in advance by modeling according to a grayscale change trend of the image.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for detecting images, comprising: modeling to obtain a mixed space-time background model according to a grayscale change trend of an image; and collecting the image, performing moving target detection on the image by using the mixed space-time background model to determine a moving target image; wherein said modeling to obtain a mixed space-time background model according to a grayscale change trend of an image comprises: determining a predicted pixel value based on exponential smoothing and illumination changes; integrating the predicted pixel value and a Center Symmetric Local Binary Pattern (CSLBP) operator to obtain a Space Time-Center Symmetric-Local Binary Pattern (ST-CSLBP) operator; calculating histograms corresponding to all pixels based on the ST-CSLBP operator; and constructing a mixed space-time background model of the histograms corresponding to all the pixels based on the ST-CSLBP operator; wherein the predicted pixel value is determined by using the following formula: z t = m t + 1 - β β ⁢ r t - 1 r t = β ⁡ ( x t - x t - 1 ) + ( 1 - β ) ⁢ r t - 1 m t = β ⁢ ⁢ x t + ( 1 - β ) ⁢ m t - 1 ; wherein z t represents a predicted pixel value of a pixel at time t, m t represents an estimated state value of the pixel at time t, β represents a smoothing factor, r t−1 represents a grayscale change trend of the pixel at time t−1, r t represents a grayscale change trend of the pixel at time t, x t represents an observed pixel value of the pixel at time t, and x t−1 represents an observed pixel value of the pixel at time t−1. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the predicted pixel value and the CSLBP operator are integrated to obtain the ST-CSLBP operator by using the following formula: ST - CSLBP P , R = ∑ p = 0 P / 2 - 1 ⁢ { s ⁡ ( g p , g p + P / 2 ) ⁢ 2 p + s ⁡ ( g zp , g z ⁡ ( p + P / 2 ) ) ⁢ 2 p + P /
