A good background modeling algorithm should be able to detect objects/targets under any environmental condition. The influence of illumination variance has been a major challenge in many background modeling algorithms. These algorithms produce poor object segmentation or consume substantial amount of computational time, which makes them not implementable at real time. In this paper we propose a novel background modeling method based on Gaussian Mixture Method (GMM). The proposed method uses Phase Congruency (PC) edge features to overcome the effect of illumination variance, while preserving efficient background/foreground segmentation. Moreover, our method uses a combination of pixel information of GMM and the Phase texture information of PC, to construct a foreground invariant of the illumination variance. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015. date: 2015 publisher: Springer Verlag official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84958520461&doi=10.1007%2f978-3-319-16631-5_29&partnerID=40&md5=2ac3541f910686ae3720426c9ca9e5c0 id_number: 10.1007/978-3-319-16631-5₂₉ full_text_status: none publication: Lecture Notes in Computer Science (including subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics) volume: 9009 pagerange: 390-400 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783319166308 issn: 03029743 citation: Hassan, M.A. and Malik, A.S. and Nicolas, W. and Faye, I.
