Abstract

In this paper a novel approach on human silhouette segmentation for surveillance systems was proposed. The described solution uses discrete Poisson equation and a combination of extended watershed algorithm with Region Growing algorithm. Experiments were performed on a commonly known database PETS 2006 and the results show that the proposed solution achieves high precision and accuracy.
