Hello, i'm working on a project for extracting objets from background : the input i have is an image for the background and a second image for those object in the same background

those 2 images are take with the same camera but not with the same position(the positio of the camera could be a little differente)

i have subtract those two images(background_image - second image) , it didnt' give an accurate result due to :

that i need to align those 2 images first(rotation, translatio, scale..) also there is athe shadow problem !!! How i can fix it?? any solution and suggestion please?

here is a simple images :

background image :

second image with objects :

result image(subtraction ) :

Thank you

Search for Object Detection / Object Classification on Google. It will maybe open your eyes / mind on how to do things in today times :-)

There are two possible general approaches to this. The normal OpenCV adaptive background subtraction methods are effective for still frames. You could try blurring algorithms or combinations of erode-dilate if you have problems with the grid lines, but that could also be solved with judicious thresholding settings.

The other approach is to search for background subtraction for video. Many texts cover this. It's normal to track moving objects, so you should be able to find algorithms that deal with position shifts.

If you are always using grid lines in the background, you could conceivably detect vertical and horizontal lines (via Hough or whatever), and try to use the locations for alignment. I'd expect that approach to be more pain than it's worth though.

Try to convert both images to binary then use AND (Logic gate) bitwise_and ....
