How to extract foreground from the similar background

Provided a image, its foreground and background are similar, how to extract foreground. I hope less human intervention. I consider:

  1. background subtraction need a pre-background image, but the camera may often move. So it is unreliable
  2. grabCut method in OpenCV library needs to point out the ROI, it is inconvenient

You may be interested in this repo, which is an implementation of Closed-Form Matting.

Using the command line CLI, you can pass in an image with scribbles showing the foreground and background, which is easier than pixel-level segmentation. I don't know how well the algorithm will perform on your images without more information, but it's somewhere to start.
