چکیده

Two difficult issues in optical flow are motion discontinuities and large interframe motion. We present an algorithm that addresses both issues by first performing feature tracking and motion segmentation and then warping one of the images to reduce the interframe motion and avoid the motion discontinuities. The algorithm consists of three major phases: 1) feature selection, 2) feature tracking and segmentation 3) optical flow. We used the Lucas and Kanade algorithm to compute the flow. The experiments on real images as well as synthetic images with ground truth showed that this method is very accurate. Ke ywords: Motion, Segmentation, Tracking, Optical Flow

Motion Segmentation and Tracking

This paper presents a novel tracking based motion segmentation algorithm. The tracking is done by fitting successively more elaborate models of optical flow on the tracked region and the segmentation is done by extracting the regions of the image that are consistent with the computed model of flow. The method can track objects in image sequences with moving background, taken by a hand-held came...

Prediction and tracking of moving objects in image sequences - Image Processing, IEEE Transactions on

We employ a prediction model for moving object velocity and location estimation derived from Bayesian theory. The optical flow of a certain moving object depends on the history of its previous values. A joint optical flow estimation and moving object segmentation algorithm is used for the initialization of the tracking algorithm. The segmentation of the moving objects is determined by appropria...
