Hello
I have 2 image, image with some element(pinc.jpg) and another only background(bg.jph), I want to use background subtraction and then aaplly a crop using mask
i used the following command
composite pic5.jpg pic5_2.jpg -compose Difference diff_prueba.jpg
convert diff_prueba.jpg -threshold 1% prueba_mask.jpg
convert pic.jpg prueba_mask,jpg -compose darken -composite -trim out.png
And this is the result

But I want only to show de foreground image without that black backgrooubd unsing jpg not png. so i think to resize the image the same size of mask

I don't understand what you want. Please link to input images, and a desired output image.
Also say what version of IM you use, on what platform.

I think you want to make the whole background black and then do a -trim resulting in the bounding box around the object. If so, then you need to clean up the background, perhaps using connected components to remove objects smaller than the main object.
Perhaps you want to make the background transparent to only show the object. But JPG does not support transparency, so the result would still be a black image unless you save as PNG.
As snibgo has said, please supply the two input images and clarify further what you want as an output. Perhaps show the output as desired or draw on your output to show what you only want to keep.

This is original photo

And this is a bg

So I want to trim the result image in order to get only foreground image.
for example I want this result

So, png is not an option because is more bigger in size than jpg

Please clarify about what background color you want when removing the rest of the image? JPG does not support transparency. So if you need the background transparent the only choices are PNG8 (8-bit color not 24-bit color) or GIF. Both support binary transparency. If you need JPG, then you would have to specify some opaque background color.

Try these two. The first keeps the full image size with black background. The second trims to the minimum bounding box. Windows syntax. (If using a bat file, then double the % to %%)
Code: Select all
convert -respect-parenthesis foreground.jpg ^
( -clone 0 background.jpg -colorspace gray -compose difference -composite -threshold 5% -type bilevel -compose over ^
-define connected-components:area-threshold=10000 ^
-define connected-components:mean-color=true ^
-connected-components 4 ) ^
-alpha off -compose copy_opacity -composite ^
-background black -alpha background -alpha off ^
result1.jpg

-alpha off -compose copy_opacity -composite ^

-trim result2.jpg

I have a last question, what is the alternative if in my IM version I dont have connected-component? Because I have two linux that one have IM 7.0 and other only I can download IM 6.7 or older version but not earlier

IM 6.7 is too old. You would need to upgrade to at least 6.8.9.10. There is no substitute for it in ImageMagick, if you have too old a version. You could try OpenCV, which has some similar functionality.
If on Linux, then check the date associated with 6.7.x.x. That will show the latest patch. If that date is too old, check with your Linux distro manager to see if there is an upgrade or more current patch.
