摘要：In this paper, we present an automatic background composition method using histogram-based graph cut. The proposed method consists of four steps: i) initial label map generation, ii) label map update, iii) object extraction by segmentation, and iv) dynamic background composition. Since the proposed method can minimize the user interaction for generating the initial label map and updating, it is suitable for simple interaction using a low-speed processor and limited memory space. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides better segmentation results compared with existing state-of-the-art methods with significantly reduced computational complexity. The proposed automatic object segmentation and background composition method can be applied to video editing, video conference, and video contents creation using low-cost mobile devices such as smart phones, smart TVs, and tablet PCs.
