Hello forum,

I tried to follow this tutorial on background subtraction at http://docs.opencv.org/master/d1/dc5/...

I seem to be having a problem though.

pMOG = createBackgroundSubtractorMOG(); //MOG approach

gives me an error

Error: identifier "createBackgroundSubtractorMOG" is undefined.

Also, for the BackgroundSubtractorMOG2, how do I remove shadows ? I cant seem to add in any parameters when I create the background subtractor MOG2. Looking through http://docs.opencv.org/modules/video/... does not tell me how to use the backgroundsubtractors. Hope someone can clarify on this. Thanks

Regarding BackgroundSubtractorMOG2 and shadows, in that very same link you provided you can see how to remove them. The constructor is BackgroundSubtractorMOG2(int history, float varThreshold, bool bShadowDetection=true ) where bShadowDetection turns on/off shadow detection. The parameter uchar nShadowDetection controls the value assigned to detected shadows (127 by default)

You should used cv::bgsegm::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG(); in opencv 3.0 You have a tutorial for MOG you can use this parameters for MOG

cv::Ptr<cv::BackgroundSubtractor> b;
b = cv::bgsegm::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG(); 
b.dynamicCast<cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorMOG>()->setHistory(history);
b.dynamicCast<cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorMOG>()->setBackgroundRatio(BackgroundRatio);
b.dynamicCast<cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorMOG>()->setNMixtures(mixtures);
b.dynamicCast<cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorMOG>()->setNoiseSigma(NoiseSigma);
b.dynamicCast<cv::bgsegm::BackgroundSubtractorMOG>()->apply(img, imDst,learningRate);

and this for MOG2

cv::Ptr<cv::BackgroundSubtractor> b;
    b = cv::createBackgroundSubtractorMOG2(); 
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setHistory(history);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setNMixtures(mixtures);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setBackgroundRatio(BackgroundRatio);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setVarThreshold(VarThreshold);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setVarThresholdGen(VarThresholdGen);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setVarInit(VarInit);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setVarMin(VarMin);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setVarMax(VarMax);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setComplexityReductionThreshold(ComplexityReductionThreshold);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setDetectShadows(DetectShadows);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setShadowValue(ShadowValue);
    b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->setVarThreshold(ShadowThreshold);
b.dynamicCast<cv::BackgroundSubtractorMOG2>()->apply(img, imDst, learningRate);

PS I haven't test syntax

also, BackgroundSubtractorMOG and BackgroundSubtractorGMG got moved to https://github.com/Itseez/opencv_contrib

http://docs.opencv.org/master/d1/dc5/...

The results at the end show the difference between MOG and MOG2. May I know if it is possible to tune the MOG2 to achieve the same results as the MOG ?

I have been reading the articles at http://docs.opencv.org/modules/video/... under backgroundsubtractorMOG and backgroundsubtractorMOG2 and am in the process of figuring out the main difference.
