A TV-L1 Optical Flow Method with Occlusion Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose a variational model for joint optical flow and occlusion estimation. Our work stems from the optical flow method based on a TV-L approach and incorporates information that allows to detect occlusions. This information is based on the divergence of the flow and the proposed energy favors the location of occlusions on regions where this divergence is negative. Assuming that occluded pixels are visible in the previous frame, the optical flow on non-occluded pixels is forward estimated whereas is backwards estimated on the occluded ones. We display some experiments showing that the proposed model is able to properly estimate both the optical flow and the occluded regions.

TV-L1 based fast and robust mosaicing of cystoscopic images
Image mosaicing helps in diagnosis and follow-up of lesions in cystoscopic bladder image sequences by increasing the field of view. Optical flow methods have been used for various scenes, whereas they were barely experimented for data with poor texture and blurry images like that of endoscopic data. In this paper, we present the use of total variational optical flow method (TV-L1) for such high...
متن کاملBilateral Filtering-Based Optical Flow Estimation with Occlusion Detection
Using the variational approaches to estimate optical flow between two frames, the flow discontinuities between different motion fields are usually not distinguished even when an anisotropic diffusion operator is applied. In this paper, we propose a multi-cue driven adaptive bilateral filter to regularize the flow computation, which is able to achieve the smoothly varied optical flow field with ...

We consider the popular TV-L1 optical flow formulation, and the so-called duality based algorithm for minimizing the TV-L1 energy. The original formulation is extended to allow for vector valued images, and minimization results are given. In addition we consider di↵erent definitions of total variation regularization, and related formulations of the optical flow problem that may be used with a d...
متن کاملOptic Flow Experiments for Slow Motion
Prediction error analysis is a known method for evaluating the performance of optic flow algorithms. This paper applies this method to long image sequences with a special focus on opportunities when using metronome sequences. Two top-performing algorithms are discussed, known as TV-L1 and BBPW.
متن کاملTV-L1 Optical Flow Estimation
This article describes an implementation of the optical flow estimation method introduced by Zach, Pock and Bischof in 2007. This method is based on the minimization of a functional containing a data term using the L1 norm and a regularization term using the total variation of the flow. The main feature of this formulation is that it allows discontinuities in the flow field, while being more ro...
