:param sigmaSpace:Filter sigma in the coordinate space. It has similar meaning with ``sigmaSpace`` in ``bilateralFilter``.
:param ksize:The kernel size. This is the neighborhood where the local variance will be calculated, and where pixels will contribute (in a weighted manner).
:param anchor:anchor point; default value ``Point(-1,-1)`` means that the anchor is at the kernel center. Only default value is supported now.
:param sigmaSpace:Filter sigma in the coordinate space. Larger value of the parameter means that farther pixels will influence each other (as long as their colors are close enough; see sigmaColor). Then d>0, it specifies the neighborhood size regardless of sigmaSpace, otherwise d is proportional to sigmaSpace.
:param borderType:border mode used to extrapolate pixels outside of the image.
:param maxSigmaColor:Maximum allowed sigma color (will clamp the value calculated in the ksize neighborhood. Larger value of the parameter means that more dissimilar pixels will influence each other (as long as their colors are close enough; see sigmaColor). Then d>0, it specifies the neighborhood size regardless of sigmaSpace, otherwise d is proportional to sigmaSpace.
The function applies adaptive bilateral filtering to the input image. This filter is similar to ``bilateralFilter``, in that dissimilarity from and distance to the center pixel is punished. Instead of using ``sigmaColor``, we employ the variance of pixel values in the neighbourhood.
:param borderType:Pixel extrapolation method.
A main part of our strategy will be to load each raw pixel once, and reuse it to calculate all pixels in the output (filtered) image that need this pixel value. The math of the filter is that of the usual bilateral filter, except that the sigma color is calculated in the neighborhood, and clamped by the optional input value.

The OpenCV OCL module contains a set of classes and functions that implement and accelerate select openCV functionality on OpenCL compatible devices. OpenCL is a Khronos standard, implemented by a variety of devices (CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, ARM), abstracting the exact hardware details, while enabling vendors to provide native implementation for maximal acceleration on their hardware. The standard enjoys wide industry support, and the end user of the module will enjoy the data parallelism benefits that the specific platform/hardware may be capable of, in a platform/hardware independent manner.

While in the future we hope to validate (and enable) the OCL module in all OpenCL capable devices, we currently develop and test on GPU devices only. This includes both discrete GPUs (NVidia, AMD), as well as integrated chips(AMD APU and intel HD devices). Performance of any particular algorithm will depend on the particular platform characteristics and capabilities. However, currently (as of 2.4.4), accuracy and mathematical correctness has been verified to be identical to that of the pure CPU implementation on all tested GPU devices and platforms (both windows and linux).

The OpenCV OCL module is designed for ease of use and does not require any knowledge of OpenCL. At a minimuml level, it can be viewed as a set of accelerators, that can take advantage of the high compute throughput that GPU/APU devices can provide. However, it can also be viewed as a starting point to really integratethe built-in functionality with your own custom OpenCL kernels, with or without modifying the source of OpenCV-OCL. Of course, knowledge of OpenCL will certainly help, however we hope that OpenCV-OCL module, and the kernels it contains in source code, can be very useful as a means of actually learning openCL. Such a knowledge would be necessary to further fine-tune any of the existing OpenCL kernels, or for extending the framework with new kernels. As of OpenCV 2.4.4, we introduce interoperability with OpenCL, enabling easy use of custom OpenCL kernels within the OpenCV framework.

To use the OCL module, you need to make sure that you have the OpenCL SDK provided with your device vendor. To correctly run the OCL module, you need to have the OpenCL runtime provide by the device vendor, typically the device driver.
To correctly run the OCL module, you need to have the OpenCL runtime provided by the device vendor, typically the device driver.
To enable OCL support, configure OpenCV using CMake with WITH\_OPENCL=ON. When the flag is set and if OpenCL SDK is installed, the full-featured OpenCV OCL module is built. Otherwise, the module may be not built. If you have AMD'S FFT and BLAS library, you can select it with WITH\_OPENCLAMDFFT=ON, WITH\_OPENCLAMDBLAS=ON.

Right now, the user can select OpenCL device by specifying the environment variable ``OPENCV_OPENCL_DEVICE``. Variable format:
Right now, the user should define the cv::ocl::Info class in the application and call cv::ocl::getDevice before any cv::ocl::func. This operation initialize OpenCL runtime and set the first found device as computing device. If there are more than one device and you want to use undefault device, you can call cv::ocl::setDevice then.

Developer Notes
-------------------
In a heterogeneous device environment, there may be cost associated with data transfer. This would be the case, for example, when data needs to be moved from host memory (accessible to the CPU), to device memory (accessible to a discrete GPU). in the case of integrated graphics chips, there may be performance issues, relating to memory coherency between access from the GPU "part" of the integrated device, or the CPU "part." For best performance, in either case, it is recommended that you do not introduce dat transfers between CPU and the discrete GPU, except in the beginning and the end of the algorithmic pipeline.

For best performance, in either case, it is recommended that you do not introduce data transfers between CPU and the discrete GPU, except in the beginning and the end of the algorithmic pipeline.
Some tidbits:
1. OpenCL version should be larger than 1.1 with FULL PROFILE.
2. Currently (2.4.4) the user call the cv::ocl::getDevice before any other function in the ocl module. This will initialize the OpenCL runtime and set the first found device as computing device. If there are more than one device and you want to use undefault device, you can call cv::ocl::setDevice thereafter.
2. Currently there's only one OpenCL context and command queue. We hope to implement multi device and multi queue support in the future.
3. Many kernels use 256 as its workgroup size if possible, so the max work group size of the device must larger than 256. All GPU devices we are aware of indeed support 256 workitems in a workgroup, however non GPU devices may not. This will be improved in the future.
4. If the device does not support double arithetic, we revert to float.
4. If the device does not support double arithmetic, then functions' implementation generates an error.
5. The oclMat uses buffer object, not image object.
5. The ``oclMat`` uses buffer object, not image object.
6. All the 3-channel matrices(i.e. RGB image) are represented by 4-channel matrices in oclMat, with the last channel unused. We provide a transparent interface to handle the difference between OpenCV Mat and oclMat.
6. All the 3-channel matrices(i.e. RGB image) are represented by 4-channel matrices in ``oclMat``, with the last channel unused. We provide a transparent interface to handle the difference between OpenCV Mat and ``oclMat``.
7. All the matrix in oclMat is aligned in column(now the alignment factor is 32 byte). It means, if a matrix is n columns m rows with the element size x byte, we will assign ALIGNMENT(x*n) bytes for each column with the last ALIGNMENT(x*n) - x*n bytes unused, so there's small holes after each column if its size is not the multiply of ALIGN.
7. All the matrix in ``oclMat`` is aligned in column (now the alignment factor for ``step`` is 32+ byte). It means, m.cols * m.elemSize() <= m.step.
8. Data transfer between Mat and oclMat: If the CPU matrix is aligned in column, we will use faster API to transfer between Mat and oclMat, otherwise, we will use clEnqueueRead/WriteBufferRect to transfer data to guarantee the alignment. 3-channel matrix is an exception, it's directly transferred to a temp buffer and then padded to 4-channel matrix(also aligned) when uploading and do the reverse operation when downloading.

9. Data transfer between Mat and oclMat: ROI is a feature of OpenCV, which allow users process a sub rectangle of a matrix. When a CPU matrix which has ROI will be transfered to GPU, the whole matrix will be transfered and set ROI as CPU's. In a word, we always transfer the whole matrix despite whether it has ROI or not.

The class discriminates between foreground and background pixels by building and maintaining a model of the background. Any pixel which does not fit this model is then deemed to be foreground. The class implements algorithm described in [MOG2004]_.
Here are important members of the class that control the algorithm, which you can set after constructing the class instance:
..ocv:member:: float backgroundRatio
..ocv:member:: float backgroundRatio
Threshold defining whether the component is significant enough to be included into the background model. ``cf=0.1 => TB=0.9`` is default. For ``alpha=0.001``, it means that the mode should exist for approximately 105 frames before it is considered foreground.

..ocv:member:: float varThreshold
..ocv:member:: float varThreshold
Threshold for the squared Mahalanobis distance that helps decide when a sample is close to the existing components (corresponds to ``Tg``). If it is not close to any component, a new component is generated. ``3 sigma => Tg=3*3=9`` is default. A smaller ``Tg`` value generates more components. A higher ``Tg`` value may result in a small number of components but they can grow too large.

Initial variance for the newly generated components. It affects the speed of adaptation. The parameter value is based on your estimate of the typical standard deviation from the images. OpenCV uses 15 as a reasonable value.

..ocv:member:: float fCT
Complexity reduction parameter. This parameter defines the number of samples needed to accept to prove the component exists. ``CT=0.05`` is a default value for all the samples. By setting ``CT=0`` you get an algorithm very similar to the standard Stauffer&Grimson algorithm.

Shadow threshold. The shadow is detected if the pixel is a darker version of the background. ``Tau`` is a threshold defining how much darker the shadow can be. ``Tau= 0.5`` means that if a pixel is more than twice darker then it is not shadow. See [ShadowDetect2003]_.
