Abstract EN
In the video monitoring of piglets in pig farms, study of the precise segmentation of foreground objects is the work of advanced research on target tracking and behavior recognition.
In view of the noninteractive and real-time requirements of such a video monitoring system, this paper proposes a method of image segmentation based on an improved noninteractive GrabCut algorithm.
The functions of preserving edges and noise reduction are realized through bilateral filtering.
An adaptive threshold segmentation method is used to calculate the local threshold and to complete the extraction of the foreground target.
The image is simplified by morphological processing; the background interference pixels, such as details in the grille and wall, are filtered, and the foreground target marker matrix is established.
The GrabCut algorithm is used to split the pixels of multiple foreground objects.
By comparing the segmentation results of various algorithms, the results show that the segmentation algorithm proposed in this paper is efficient and accurate, and the mean range of structural similarity is [0.88, 1].
The average processing time is 1606 ms, and this method satisfies the real-time requirement of an agricultural video monitoring system.
Feature vectors such as edges and central moments are calculated and the database is well established for feature extraction and behavior identification.
This method provides reliable foreground segmentation data for the intelligent early warning of a video monitoring system.
