Abstract：A random ferns based method is proposed for bilayer video segmentation with the capability of segmenting monocular video automatically. Motion feature dictionary is constructed by clustering the motion features of the video, and the motion features are modeled by random ferns. The video colors, motion features and neighboring relationships are constrained by using conditional random fields. The graph-cut algorithm is adopted for solving globally optimal segmentation results. The experimental results demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithm, and the results of the proposed method are compared with other algorithms on different video data.
