Abstract

Affine motion model is widely used in motion segmentation. This paper gives an approach for moving object segmentation by using Fuzzy C-Means clustering on Affine parameters. Here this algorithm has been simulated in Matlab. Fuzzy C-Means clustering has been applied on the affine parameters of the pixels. Affine parameters have been calculated from Optical Flow data. Here Lucas Kanade method has been used for Optical flow Velocity calculation. Comparison of proposed method with respect to K-Means clustering segmentation method has been presented. By proposed method reduction in segmentation computation time has been achieved to almost half of the time compared to K-Means clustering segmentation. Segmentation output of the proposed method on the test video flower.yuv has produced good results.
