Abstract. In the course of moving object detection, the shadow of objects may arise many problems, such as the distortion of the object shape, the adhesion between different objects and so on. To cope with these problems, a fast shadow removal method based on video image is proposed. By the computing model based on YUV color space, the distortion coefficient between moving object and background can be obtained, and then the shadow can be removed by this value. Finally, experimental results show that the method for shadow removal can detect the shadow and separate several joined objects correctly.
