Region-based affine motion segmentation using color information
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents region-based a ne motion parameter clustering methods by motion-vector and intensity matching to provide improved robustness and alignment of motion boundaries with real object boundaries. Regions may be formed as xedor variable-size rectangular blocks, triangular patches, or arbitrary-shaped areas de ned by color or texture uniformity. A particular combination of these a ne clustering methods is then proposed to obtain the best segmentation results on a variety of image sequences. Experimental results showing the bene ts of the proposed scheme are provided.

Fast video object segmentation using affine motion and gradient-based color clustering
Video object segmentation is an important component for object-based video coding schemes such as MPEG-4. A fast and robust video segmentation technique, which aims at e cient foreground and background separation via e ective combination of motion and color segmentation modules is proposed in this work. First, a non-parametric gradient-based iterative color clustering algorithm called the mean ...
متن کاملA Region-based Algorithm for Image Segmentation and Parametric Motion Estimation*
This paper describes an approach for integrating region-based motion estimation and region merging techniques with the purpose of obtaining precise parametric motion description and image segmentation. Segmentation is achieved with a region merging scheme based initially on color homogeneity and extended to include motion parameters in successive steps. Motion vectors are first estimated with a...
متن کاملA Region-based Video Coder Using Edge Flow Segmentation and Hierarchical Affine Region Matching
The essential motivations, towards an object-based approach to video coding, include possible object-based interactivity and functionality, and the elimination of blocking or mosquito artifacts that typically occur in a block-based coding scheme. In this work we present a region-based video coder which uses a segmentation map obtained from the previous reconstructed frame, thereby eliminating t...
متن کاملExtracting Gestural Motion Trajectories
This paper is concerned with the extraction of spatiotemporal patterns in video sequences with focus on trajectories of gestural motions associated with American Sign Language. An algorithm is described to extract the motion trajectories of salient features such as human palms from an image sequence. First, motion segmentation of the image sequence is generated based on a multiscale segmentatio...
متن کاملObject segmentation using skin color and motion information
This paper presents an effective object segmentation method for object-oriented coding. The process is composed of facial region detection using skin color and changed region detection using motion information. The image is then segmented between moving objects and background using motion estimation. The facial regions are detected using skin color, the data for which is obtained from the u, v ...
