Nonparametric model for background subtraction

by Ahmed Elgammal, David Harwood, Larry Davis - in ECCV ’00 , 2000
"... Abstract. Background subtraction is a method typically used to seg-ment moving regions in image sequences taken from a static camera by comparing each new frame to a model of the scene background. We present a novel non-parametric background model and a background subtraction approach. The model can ..."

The effect of background color on asymmetries in color search

by Ruth Rosenholtz, Allen L. Nagy, Nicole R. Bell - IEEE International Conference on Image Processing , 2004
"... Many previous studies have shown that background color affects the discriminability and appearance of color stimuli. However, research on visual search has not typically considered the role that the background may play. Rosenholtz (2001a) has suggested that color search asymmetries result from the r ..."

Using Background Colors to Support Program Comprehension

by Janet Feigenspan, Michael Schulze, Maria Papendieck, Christian Kästner, Raimund Dachselt, Mathias Frisch - in Software Product Lines. In Proc. Int’l Conf. Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering (EASE , 2011
"... Abstract—Background: Software product line engineering provides an effective mechanism to implement variable software. However, the usage of preprocessors, which is typical in industry, is heavily criticized, because it often leads to obfuscated code. Using background colors to support comprehensibi ..."

Modifying Polyacrylamide Background Color for the Nitroblue Tetrazolium-Based

by Superoxide Dismutase, Staining Assay, Robert Louis Bertr, Michael Okechukwu Eze
"... The reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium by superoxide radicals generated from photo-reactive ri-boflavin has been in use for more than four decades to detect superoxide dismutase (SOD) on non-denaturing polyacrylamide gels. SOD research in medicine and biochemistry has warranted the development of mu ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
to reliably adjust the background color of polyacrylamide gels without compromising assay efficacy. Low micromolar to low millimolar concentrations of yellow riboflavin can be mixed with the blue of reduced nitroblue tetrazolium to controllably produce blue, purple, yellow-brown, or yellow gel backgrounds

Font and background color independent text binarization

by T Kasar, J Kumar, A G Ramakrishnan - In Proceedings of 2nd International Workshop on Camera Based Document Analysis and Recognition , 2007
"... We propose a novel method for binarization of color documents whereby the foreground text is output as black and the background as white regardless of the polarity of foreground-background shades. The method employs an edge-based connected component approach and automatically determines a threshold ..."

Rapid object detection using a boosted cascade of simple features

by Paul Viola, Michael Jones - ACCEPTED CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER VISION AND PATTERN RECOGNITION 2001 , 2001
"... This paper describes a machine learning approach for visual object detection which is capable of processing images extremely rapidly and achieving high detection rates. This work is distinguished by three key contributions. The first is the introduction of a new image representation called the " ..."
Abstract - Cited by 3283 (9 self) - Add to MetaCart
is a method for combining increasingly more complex classifiers in a "cascade" which allows background regions of the image to be quickly discarded while spending more computation on promising object-like regions. The cascade can be viewed as an object specific focus-of-attention mechanism

Color-based probabilistic tracking

by P. Perez, C. Hue, J. Vermaak, M. Gangnet - ECCV , 2002
"... Color-based trackers recently proposed in [3,4,5] have been proved robust and versatile for a modest computational cost. They are especially appealing for tracking tasks where the spatial structure of the tracked objects exhibits such a dramatic variability that trackers based on a space-dependent ..."

tracking technique. The use of a particle filter allows us to better handle color clutter in the background, as well as complete occlusion of the tracked entities over a few frames. This probabilistic approach is very flexible and can be extended in a number of useful ways. In particular, we introduce

The Impact of Ad Background Color on Brand Personality and Brand Preferences
