A Segmentation Technique Based on Merging of Colour and Motion Information
نویسنده
چکیده
In this contribution a technique for video segmentation based on joint colour and motion information is presented. The technique entails preand post-processing stages in addition to clustering algorithms to define homogeneous colour patches. As far as motion detection is concerned, enhanced robustness is achieved by extended depth analysis and motion estimation reliability assessment. Final merging of colour and motion information is made by classifying the global state of motion of each colour patch. keywords: video segmentation, wavelet decomposition, colour histogram, region growing, motion analysis, reliability.

Using non-linear diffusion and motion information for video segmentation
In this paper, we propose a technique for video segmentation using non-linear diffusion, incorporating watershed transform, colour similarity merging and motion estimation. The current frame t to be segmented is spatially partition into homogenous regions based on watershed transform with colour similarity merging in the CIELUV colour space. A future frame t + x, is then used as reference to es...
متن کاملVideo Segmentation for Markerless Motion Capture in Unconstrained Environments
Segmentation is a first and important step in video-based motion capture applications. A lack of constraints can make this process daunting and difficult to achieve. We propose a technique that makes use of an improved JSEG procedure in the context of markerless motion capture for performance evaluation of human beings in unconstrained environments. In the proposed algorithm a non-parametric cl...
متن کاملMatching error based criterion of region merging for joint motion estimation and segmentation techniques
This paper describes a region merging method for joint motion estimation and segmentation of digital video sequences. The region merging criterion is based on the measure of the matching error for a region when applying a previously estimated motion to it. A region adjacency graph is used for data representation, which allows a scan independent processing and gives a high-level view. The method...
