Filtering requirements for gradient-based optical flow measurement

چکیده

The accuracy of gradient-based optical flow algorithms depends on the ability to measure intensity gradients accurately. We show how the temporal gradient can be compromised by temporal aliasing arising from motion and how appropriate post-sampling spatial filtering improves the situation. We also demonstrate a benefit of using higher-order gradient estimators.

Spatial Filtering Requirements for Gradient-Based Optical Flow Measurement

When using a gradient-based method to determine the optical flow field for an image sequence, it is generally appreciated that some spatial pre-filtering of the images is usually needed, particularly for large motion values. However the characteristics of the filter are not generally given. In this paper we analyse the motion measurement from the point of view of sampling theory. We show how an...

Robust Tracking with Spatio-Velocity Snakes: Kalman Filtering Approach

Using results from robust Kalman filtering, we present a new Kalman filter-based snake model for tracking of nonrigid objects in combined spatio-velocity space. The proposed model is the stochastic version of the velocity snake, an active contour model for combined tracking of position and velocity of nonrigid boundaries. The proposed model uses image gradient and optical flow measurements alon...

Error Sources and Error Reduction in Gradient-Based Method with Local Optimization

The purpose of this study is to establish the technique for estimating optical flow with high accuracy and robustness using gradient-based method with local optimization. To obtain high accuracy, we should understand error sources and how to reduce the errors. We proposed error reduction techniques for gradient measurement error which are a spatiotemporal median filter to reduce sensor noise an...

Optimal Filter Estimation for Lucas-Kanade Optical Flow

Optical flow algorithms offer a way to estimate motion from a sequence of images. The computation of optical flow plays a key-role in several computer vision applications, including motion detection and segmentation, frame interpolation, three-dimensional scene reconstruction, robot navigation and video compression. In the case of gradient based optical flow implementation, the pre-filtering st...

Tracking of Image Intensities Based on Optical Flow: An Evaluation of Nonlinear Diffusion Process

Image smoothing based on anisotropic diffusion provides better performance than classical linear filtering. One difficulty is to compare and evaluate the different models proposed. Since the basic model arises from fluid mechanics, we propose to track anisotropic diffusion using an optical flow technique through a new physics based image model. Consequently to this, we propose a new choice for ...
