1. A system for background subtraction in video content, said system comprising: one or more circuits in an electronic device configured to: generate an optical flow image of an image frame from a sequence of image frames of said video content; determine a first distribution based on pixel values of a plurality of pixels of said generated optical flow image; determine a second distribution based on pixel values of a set of pixels of said plurality of pixels of said generated optical flow image, wherein said set of pixels corresponds to pixels that touch one or more borders of said image frame; determine a third distribution based on said determined first distribution and said determined second distribution; and determine one or more peak values within a specified threshold range in said determined third distribution, wherein said determined one or more peak values correspond to one or more background regions in said generated optical flow image.
