Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for detecting sudden illumination changes using radiance consistency within a spatial neighborhood. A background/foreground (BG/FG) component of a behavior recognition system may be configured to generate a background image depicting a scene background. Further, the (BG/FG) component may periodically evaluate a current video frame to determine whether a sudden illumination change has occurred. A sudden illumination change occurs when scene lighting changes dramatically from one frame to the next (or over a small number of frames).
