Low-rank and Sparse based Representation Methods with the Application of Moving Object Detection
DownloadFall 2019
In this thesis, we study the problem of detecting moving objects from an image sequence using low-rank and sparse representation concepts. The identification of changing or moving areas in the field of view of a camera is a fundamental step in visual surveillance, smart environments, and video...
