Abstract
Video foreground prediction is a technique to estimate the probability of each pixel being foreground in current frame based on a foreground segmentation result of its previous frame. Existing foreground prediction algorithms usually assume that the illumination conditions are constant for consecutive frames. Therefore, they cannot predict foreground accurately when the illumination condition changes sharply between video frames. In this paper, a new robust video foreground prediction algorithm is proposed based on color recovering, which is derived based on an observation that the illumination changes are locally smooth. By integrating color recovering with an optical flow estimation algorithm and an opacity propagation algorithm, the negative impact of the illumination changes could be removed. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can get more accurate results for videos with illumination changes compared with the existing foreground prediction algorithms.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
