Method and System for Segmenting Moving Objects from Images Using Foreground Extraction
First Claim
1. A method for extracting pixels from a set of images, comprising a processor for performing steps of the method, comprising the steps ofacquiring the set of images of a scene with a camera, wherein the scene includes an object having motion, and a relative difference of a motion of the camera and the motion of the object is substantially zero;
- determining statistical properties of pixels in the set of images; and
applying a statistical method to the statistical properties to identify the pixels corresponding to the object.

Abstract
A set of images is acquired of a scene by a camera. The scene includes a moving object, and a relative difference of a motion of the camera and a motion of the object is substantially zero. Statistical properties of pixels in the images are determined, and a statistical method is applied to the statistical properties to identify pixels corresponding to the object.
