Visual Motion Estimation from Image Contour Tracking
نویسندگان
چکیده
An approach to visual motion estimation and its stabilization suitable for longitudinal camera motion is proposed. Closed contours with their image pair-like displacements in a short image sequence are detected. The contour length change rate is estimated allowing the rst stabilization step a weighted averaging of displacements. Two further steps follow the grouping of similarly moving neighbour contours and an adaptive motion estimation in a long image sequence.

Real-Time Tracking of Multiple Moving Object Contours in a Moving Camera Image Sequence
This paper describes a new method for detection and tracking of moving objects from a moving camera image sequence using robust estimation and active contour models. We assume that the apparent background motion between two consecutive image frames can be approximated by affine transformation. In order to register the static background, we estimate affine transformation parameters using LMedS (...
متن کاملReal Time Planar Structure Tracking: a Contour and Texture Approach Muriel Pressigout and Éric Marchand
Robustness and accuracy are major issues in real-time object tracking in image sequences. This paper describes a reliable tracking for markerless objects based on the fusion of visual cues and on the estimation of a 2D transformation. The parameters of this transformation are estimated using a non-linear minimization of a unique criterion that integrates information on both texture and edges of...
متن کاملIntegrating Colors, Shapes and Motions Using Active Contour Based Visual Tracking
ABSTRACT: The visual tracking is the major process in finding the spot of moving object over time using a camera. Object tracking is challenging task when the object moves fast relative to the frame rate. The active contour algorithm is used for tracking the object in a given frame of an image sequence. In videos particular object motion can be tracked by using stationary cameras but in moving ...
متن کاملDiaphragm Tracking for Respiratory Motion Compensated Cardiac C-Arm CT
Long acquisition times of several seconds lead to image artifacts in cardiac C-arm CT. While ECG gating is able to select a certain heart phase, residual artifacts are mostly caused by respiratory motion. In order to improve image quality, it is important to accurately estimate the breathing motion that occurred during image acquisition. It has been shown that diaphragmmotion is correlated to t...
