“…During the past decade, a variety of moving shadow elimination algorithms continually spring up. Usually, these methods are mainly divided into four categories: geometry-based methods [4], [22], texture-based methods [5], [29], [30], chromaticity-based methods [6], [31], and physical model-based methods [7]. Geometry-based methods assume that light source, object shape, and the ground plane are known, using the information of direction, size, and shape of shadows to detect shadows [8].…”
