BGSLibrary

A Background Subtraction Library

Release License: GPL v3 Platform: Windows, Linux, OS X OpenCV Wrapper: Python, MATLAB Algorithms

Last page update: 04/03/2023

Library Version: 3.3.0 (see Build Status and Release Notes for more info)

The BGSLibrary was developed in early 2012 by Andrews Sobral as a C++ framework (with wrappers available for Python, Java and MATLAB) for foreground-background separation in videos using OpenCV. The bgslibrary is compatible with OpenCV versions 2.4.x, 3.x and 4.x, and can be compiled on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. It currently contains 43 algorithms and is available free of charge to all users, both academic and commercial. The library's source code is available under the MIT license.

You can either install BGSLibrary via pre-built binary package or build it from source

Supported Compilers are:

GCC 4.8 and above
Clang 3.4 and above
MSVC 2015, 2017, 2019 or newer

Other compilers might work, but are not officially supported. The bgslibrary requires some features from the ISO C++ 2014 standard.
