چکیده

Nowadays, motion estimation is one of the main subjects in computer vision. Many methods developed to compute motion make use of the optical flow hypothesis. These methods usually fail to capture motion of objects with intensity evolution. We propose a new approach to solve the motion computation problem with a different type of constancy hypothesis. Because we are mainly interested in deformable moving structures, we postulate that such a structure, within a temporal image sequence, is associated with a constant volume or a constant total intensity over time. We call this postulate the volume conservation hypothesis. Results are displayed for clouds motion and deformation on meteorological satellites images.

Surface runoff estimation in an upper watershed using geo-spatial based soil conservation service-curve number method

Runoff assessment and estimation is crucial for watershed management as it provides information that is needed to expedite the course of watershed planning and development. The most commonly used model due to its simplicity and versatility in runoff estimation is the soil conservation service curve number developed by the United States Department of Agriculture. The study estimates the surface ...

An object based motion method for video coding

In order to improve efficiency of video coding, temporal redundancy between neighboring frames can be reduced. In MPEG-2, some frames, named interframes, are predicted using a motion estimation based on the conservation of the intensity over time. In the new standard MPEG-4, frames are separated into several objects that are transmitted separately. Therefore, the prediction has to be performed ...

A Generalized Optical Flow Constraint and its Physical Interpretation

This paper addresses the issue of motion estimation on image sequences. The standard motion equation used to compute the apparent motion of image irradiance patterns is an invariance brightness based hypothesis called the optical flow constraint. Other equations can be used, in particular the extended optical flow constraint, which is a variant of the optical flow constraint, inspired by the fl...

Influence of heart motion on EIT-based stroke volume estimation

Cardiac electrical impedance tomography (EIT) signals are affected by myocardial motion. The feasibility of stroke volume estimation using such signals is thus questionable. Results based on a dynamic model show that myocardial motion indeed affects but does not compromise stroke volume estimation.

Relationship between Ecological Footprint and Economic Growth in D8 Countries: Testing the Kuznets Environmental Hypothesis Using PSTR Model

This study examines the Kuznets environmental curve among D8 countries in the period 1961–2016. The Kuznets environmental curve shows the reversed U-shaped relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation. In this paper, two methods of time series estimation and smooth panel transition estimation were used to test the hypothesis of this relationship. Also, the ecological footp...
