Abstract
The present invention provides a method for video matting via sparse and low-rank representation, which firstly selects frames which represent video characteristics in input video as keyframes, then trains a dictionary according to known pixels in the keyframes, next obtains a reconstruction coefficient satisfying the restriction of low-rank, sparse and non-negative according to the dictionary, and sets the non-local relationship matrix between each pixel in the input video according to the reconstruction coefficient, meanwhile sets the Laplace matrix between multiple frames, obtains a video alpha matte of the input video, according to α values of the known pixels of the input video and α values of sample points in the dictionary, the non-local relationship matrix and the Laplace matrix; and finally extracts a foreground object in the input video according to the video alpha matte, therefore improving quality of the extracted foreground object.
