Abstract:
Automated video-based applications are a highly demanding technique from a security perspective, where detection of moving objects i.e., moving object segmentation (MOS) is performed. Therefore, we have proposed an effective solution with a spatio-temporal squeeze excitation mechanism (SqEm) based multi-level feature sharing encoder-decoder network for MOS. Here, the SqEm module is proposed to get prominent foreground edge information using spatio-temporal features. Further, a multi-level feature sharing residual decoder module is proposed with respective SqEm features and previous output features for accurate and consistent foreground segmentation. To handle the foreground or background class imbalance issue, we propose a region of interest-based edge loss. The extensive experimental analysis on three databases is conducted. Result analysis and ablation study proved the robustness of the proposed network for unseen video understanding over SOTA methods.
