Introduction
The BGSLibrary (Background Subtraction Library) is a comprehensive C++ framework designed for background subtraction in computer vision applications, particularly for detecting moving objects in video streams. It provides an easy-to-use and extensible platform for researchers and developers to experiment with and implement various background subtraction techniques.
Library Version
3.3.0 (see Build Status and Release Notes for more info)
Background and Development
The BGSLibrary was developed in early 2012 by Andrews Cordolino Sobral as a C++ framework with wrappers available for Python, Java, and MATLAB. It aims to facilitate foreground-background separation in videos using the OpenCV library.
Compatibility
The library is compatible with OpenCV versions 2.4.x, 3.x, and 4.x. It can be compiled and used on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X systems.
Licensing
The library's source code is available under the MIT license, making it free for both academic and commercial use.

Installation instructions
You can either install BGSLibrary via pre-built binary package or build it from source
Supported Compilers:
- 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.
