In the context of video background-foreground separation, we propose a compressive online Robust Principal Component Analysis (RPCA) with optical flow that separates recursively a sequence of video frames into foreground (sparse) and background (low-rank) components. This separation method can process per video frame from a small set of measurements, in contrast to conventional batch-based RPCA, which processes the full data. The proposed method also leverages multiple prior information by incorporating previously separated background and foreground frames in an n-l1 minimization problem. Moreover, optical flow is utilized to estimate motions between the previous foreground frames and then compensate the motions to achieve higher quality prior foregrounds for improving the separation. Our method is tested on several video sequences in different scenarios for online background-foreground separation given compressive measurements. The visual and quantitative results show that the proposed method outperforms other existing methods.

Background modeling of video frame sequences is a prerequisite for computer vision applications. Robust principal component analysis(RPCA), which aims to recover low rank matrix in applications of data mining and machine learning, has shown improved background modeling performance. Unfortunately, The traditional RPCA method considers the batch recovery of low rank matrix of all samples, which leads to higher storage cost. This paper proposes a novel online motion-aware RPCA algorithm, named OM-RPCAT, which adopt truncated nuclear norm regularization as an approximation method for of low rank constraint. And then, Two methods are employed to obtain the motion estimation matrix, the optical flow and the frame selection, which are merged into the data items to separate the foreground and background. Finally, an efficient alternating optimization algorithm is designed in an online manner. Experimental evaluations of challenging sequences demonstrate promising results over state-of-the-art methods in online application.

Principal Component Pursuit (PCP) recovers low-dimensional structures from a small set of linear measurements, such as low rank matrix and sparse matrix. Pervious works mainly focus on exact recovery without additional noise. However, in many applications the observed measurements are corrupted by an additional white Gaussian noise (AWGN). In this paper, we model the recovered matrix the sum a low-rank matrix, a sparse matrix and an AWGN. We propose a weighted PCP for the recovery matrix, which is solved by alternating direction method. Numerical results show that the reconstructions performance of weighted PCP outperforms the classical PCP in term of accuracy.

Augmented Lagrange Multiplier Method

A method based on Robust Principle Component Analysis (RPCA) technique is proposed to detect small targets in infrared images. Using the low rank characteristic of background and the sparse characteristic of target, the observed image is regarded as the sum of a low-rank background matrix and a sparse outlier matrix, and then the decomposition is solved by the RPCA. The infrared small target is extracted from the single-frame image or multi-frame sequence. In order to get more efficient algorithm, the iteration process in the augmented Lagrange multiplier method is improved. The simulation results show that the method can detect out the small target precisely and efficiently.

Learning to synthesize non-existing frames from the original consecutive video frames is a challenging task. Recent kernel-based interpolation methods predict pixels with a single convolution process to replace the dependency of optical flow. However, when scene motion is larger than the pre-defined kernel size, these methods yield poor results even though they take thousands of neighboring pixels into account. To solve this problem in this paper, we propose to use deformable separable convolution (DSepConv) to adaptively estimate kernels, offsets and masks to allow the network to obtain information with much fewer but more relevant pixels. In addition, we show that the kernel-based methods and conventional flow-based methods are specific instances of the proposed DSepConv. Experimental results demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms the other kernel-based interpolation methods and shows strong performance on par or even better than the state-of-the-art algorithms both qualitatively and quantitatively.

The Cost

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a classical dimensionality reduction technique that computes a low rank representation of the data. Recent studies have shown how to compute this low rank representation from most of the data, excluding a small amount of outlier data. We show how to convert this problem into graph search, and describe an algorithm that solves this problem optimally by applying a variant of the A* algorithm to search for the outliers. The results obtained by our algorithm are optimal in terms of accuracy, and are shown to be more accurate than results obtained by the current state-of-the- art algorithms which are shown not to be optimal. This comes at the cost of running time, which is typically slower than the current state of the art. We also describe a related variant of the A* algorithm that runs much faster than the optimal variant and produces a solution that is guaranteed to be near the optimal. This variant is shown experimentally to be more accurate than the current state-of-the-art and has a comparable running time.

Heterogeneous Feature

Action recognition (AR) plays a fundamental role in computer vision and video analysis. We are witnessing an astronomical increase of video data on the web and it is difficult to recognize the action in video due to different view point of camera. For AR in video sequence, it depends upon appearance in frame and optical flow in frames of video. In video spatial and temporal components of video frames features play integral role for better classification of action in videos. In the proposed system, RGB frames and optical flow frames are used for AR with the help of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) pre-trained model Alex-Net extract features from fc7 layer. Support vector machine (SVM) classifier is used for the classification of AR in videos. For classification purpose, HMDB51 dataset have been used which includes 51 Classes of human action. The dataset is divided into 51 action categories. Using SVM classifier, extracted features are used for classification and achieved best result 95.6% accuracy as compared to other techniques of the state-of- art.v

<p>A phaseless Gauss-Newton inversion (GNI) algorithm is developed for microwave imaging applications. In contrast to full-data microwave imaging inversion that uses complex (magnitude and phase) scattered field data, the proposed phaseless GNI algorithm inverts phaseless (magnitude-only) total field data. This phaseless Gauss-Newton inversion (PGNI) algorithm is augmented with three different forms of regularization, originally developed for complex GNI. First, we use the standard weighted L2 norm total variation multiplicative regularizer which is appropriate when there is no prior information about the object being imaged. We then use two other forms of regularization operators to incorporate prior information about the object being imaged into the PGNI algorithm. The first one, herein referred to as SL-PGNI, incorporates prior information about the expected relative complex permittivity values of the object of interest. The other, referred to as SP-PGNI, incorporates spatial priors (structural information) about the objects being imaged. The use of prior information aims to compensate for the lack of total field phase data. The PGNI, SL-PGNI, and SP-PGNI inversion algorithms are then tested against synthetic and experimental phaseless total field data.</p>
