High Accuracy Optical Flow Method Based on a Theory for Warping: Implementation and Qualitative/Quantitative Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the implementation of a 2D optical flow algorithm published in the European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV 2004) by Brox et al. [1] (best paper award) and a qualitative and quantitative evaluation of it for a number of synthetic and real image sequences. Their optical flow method combines three assumptions: a brightness constancy assumption, a gradient constancy assumption and a spatio-temporal smoothness constraint. A numerical scheme based on fixed point iterations is used. Their method uses a coarse-to-fine warping strategy to measure larger optical flow vectors. We have investigated the algorithm in detail and our evaluation of the method demonstrates that it produces very accurate optical flow fields from only 2 input images.

High Accuracy Optical Flow Method Based on a Theory for Warping: 3D Extension
This paper describes the implementation and qualitative and quantitative evaluation of a 3D optical flow algorithm, whose derivation is based on the 2D optical flow method published by Brox et al. [ECCV2004]. The optical flowminimizes an energy function built with three assumptions: a brightness constancy assumption, a gradient constancy assumption, and a smoothness assumption. Brox et al. mini...
متن کاملHigh Accuracy Optical Flow Estimation Based on a Theory for Warping
We study an energy functional for computing optical flow that combines three assumptions: a brightness constancy assumption, a gradient constancy assumption, and a discontinuity-preserving spatio-temporal smoothness constraint. In order to allow for large displacements, linearisations in the two data terms are strictly avoided. We present a consistent numerical scheme based on two nested fixed ...

متن کاملOptical flow estimation using high frame rate sequences
Gradient-based optical flow estimation methods such as LucasKanade method work well for scenes with small displacements but fail when objects move with large displacements. Hierarchical matching-based methods do not suffer from large displacements but are less accurate. By utilizing the high speed imaging capability of CMOS image sensors, the frame rate can be increased to obtain more accurate ...
