Background Segmentation
=======================

.. highlight:: cpp



cuda::BackgroundSubtractorMOG
-----------------------------
Gaussian Mixture-based Background/Foreground Segmentation Algorithm.

.. ocv:class:: cuda::BackgroundSubtractorMOG : public cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG

The class discriminates between foreground and background pixels by building and maintaining a model of the background. Any pixel which does not fit this model is then deemed to be foreground. The class implements algorithm described in [MOG2001]_.

.. seealso:: :ocv:class:`BackgroundSubtractorMOG`

.. note::

   * An example on gaussian mixture based background/foreground segmantation can be found at opencv_source_code/samples/gpu/bgfg_segm.cpp



cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG
-----------------------------------
Creates mixture-of-gaussian background subtractor

.. ocv:function:: Ptr<cuda::BackgroundSubtractorMOG> cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG(int history=200, int nmixtures=5, double backgroundRatio=0.7, double noiseSigma=0)

    :param history: Length of the history.

    :param nmixtures: Number of Gaussian mixtures.

    :param backgroundRatio: Background ratio.

    :param noiseSigma: Noise strength (standard deviation of the brightness or each color channel). 0 means some automatic value.



cuda::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2
------------------------------
Gaussian Mixture-based Background/Foreground Segmentation Algorithm.

.. ocv:class:: cuda::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2 : public cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2

The class discriminates between foreground and background pixels by building and maintaining a model of the background. Any pixel which does not fit this model is then deemed to be foreground. The class implements algorithm described in [MOG2004]_.

.. seealso:: :ocv:class:`BackgroundSubtractorMOG2`



cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG2
------------------------------------
Creates MOG2 Background Subtractor

.. ocv:function:: Ptr<cuda::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2> cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG2( int history=500, double varThreshold=16, bool detectShadows=true )

  :param history: Length of the history.

  :param varThreshold: Threshold on the squared Mahalanobis distance between the pixel and the model to decide whether a pixel is well described by the background model. This parameter does not affect the background update.

  :param detectShadows: If true, the algorithm will detect shadows and mark them. It decreases the speed a bit, so if you do not need this feature, set the parameter to false.



cuda::BackgroundSubtractorGMG
-----------------------------
Background/Foreground Segmentation Algorithm.

.. ocv:class:: cuda::BackgroundSubtractorGMG : public cv::BackgroundSubtractorGMG

The class discriminates between foreground and background pixels by building and maintaining a model of the background. Any pixel which does not fit this model is then deemed to be foreground. The class implements algorithm described in [GMG2012]_.



cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorGMG
-----------------------------------
Creates GMG Background Subtractor

.. ocv:function:: Ptr<cuda::BackgroundSubtractorGMG> cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorGMG(int initializationFrames = 120, double decisionThreshold = 0.8)

    :param initializationFrames: Number of frames of video to use to initialize histograms.

    :param decisionThreshold: Value above which pixel is determined to be FG.



cuda::BackgroundSubtractorFGD
-----------------------------

.. ocv:class:: cuda::BackgroundSubtractorFGD : public cv::BackgroundSubtractor

The class discriminates between foreground and background pixels by building and maintaining a model of the background. Any pixel which does not fit this model is then deemed to be foreground. The class implements algorithm described in [FGD2003]_. ::

    class CV_EXPORTS BackgroundSubtractorFGD : public cv::BackgroundSubtractor
    {
    public:
        virtual void getForegroundRegions(OutputArrayOfArrays foreground_regions) = 0;
    };

.. seealso:: :ocv:class:`BackgroundSubtractor`



cuda::BackgroundSubtractorFGD::getForegroundRegions
---------------------------------------------------
Returns the output foreground regions calculated by :ocv:func:`findContours`.

.. ocv:function:: void cuda::BackgroundSubtractorFGD::getForegroundRegions(OutputArrayOfArrays foreground_regions)

    :params foreground_regions: Output array (CPU memory).



cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorFGD
-----------------------------------
Creates FGD Background Subtractor

.. ocv:function:: Ptr<cuda::BackgroundSubtractorGMG> cuda::createBackgroundSubtractorFGD(const FGDParams& params = FGDParams())

    :param params: Algorithm's parameters. See [FGD2003]_ for explanation.
