Background detection in a single image

I am writing a code in which I require subtraction of the background part of a single image. All the methods demonstrated online are for video files. Is there any way of subtracting the background when we have only a single image available? For example consider this image:

This figure is prepared from the Stanford house number dataset

My question is, is there any way of segregating the numbers from there background so that we can detect them quite easily? The Stanford house number dataset is available here

You need numbers segmentation, not background. After you segmented numbers, just invert mask. Many neural networks can be trained for this task.
