A novel double-threshold pulse coupled neural networks (DTPCNN) is proposed and applied to shadow detection. It attempts to reduce the false detection of shadows in a single image where the hue and brightness of some non-shadow regions are similar to or even lower than those of shadows. Shadows whos...
