Background modeling constitutes the building block of many computer-vision tasks. Traditional schemes model the background as a low rank matrix with corrupted entries. These schemes operate in batch mode and do not scale well with the data size. Moreover, without enforcing spatiotemporal information in the low-rank component, and because of occlusions by foreground objects and redundancy in video data, the design of a background initialization method robust against outliers is very challenging. To overcome these limitations, this paper presents a spatiotemporal low-rank modeling method on dynamic video clips for estimating the robust background model. The proposed method encodes spatiotemporal constraints by regularizing spectral graphs. Initially, a motion-compensated binary matrix is generated using optical flow information to remove redundant data and to create a set of dynamic frames from …
