Global Functions

Ptr<BackgroundSubtractorKNN>
cv::createBackgroundSubtractorKNN(
    int history = 500,
    double dist2Threshold = 400.0,
    bool detectShadows = true
    )

Creates KNN Background Subtractor.

Parameters:

history Length of the history.
dist2Threshold Threshold on the squared distance between the pixel and the sample to decide whether a pixel is close to that sample. This parameter does not affect the background update.
detectShadows If true, the algorithm will detect shadows and mark them. It decreases the speed a bit, so if you do not need this feature, set the parameter to false.
Ptr<BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>
cv::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG2(
    int history = 500,
    double varThreshold = 16,
    bool detectShadows = true
    )

Creates MOG2 Background Subtractor.

Parameters:

history Length of the history.
varThreshold Threshold on the squared Mahalanobis distance between the pixel and the model to decide whether a pixel is well described by the background model. This parameter does not affect the background update.
detectShadows If true, the algorithm will detect shadows and mark them. It decreases the speed a bit, so if you do not need this feature, set the parameter to false.
