Robust Affine Motion Estimation in Joint Image Space Using Tensor Voting
نویسندگان
چکیده
Robustness of parameter estimation relies on discriminating inliers from outliers within the set of correspondences. In this paper, we present a method using tensor voting to eliminate outliers and estimating affine transformation parameters directly from covariance matrix of selected inliers without additional parameter estimation processing. Our approach is based on the representation of the correspondences in a decoupled joint image space and the use of the metric associated with the affine transformation. We enforce the metric property in a joint image space for tensor voting, detect several inlier groups corresponding distinct affine motions and directly estimate affine parameters from each set of inliers. The proposed approach is illustrated by a set of challenging examples.

Parametric 2d Layer Inference from Uncalibrated Images
Grouping based on motion and spatial support is essential, and is challenging. This paper focuses on extracting 2D layers from uncalibrated images. Targeted motion models are affine transformations. Our approach reliably extracts multiple 2D affine motion layers from noisy initial matches. This approach is based on: (1) a parametric method to detect and extract 2D affine; (2) the representation...
متن کاملMotion Segmentation with Accurate Boundaries - A Tensor Voting Approach
Producing an accurate motion flow field is very difficult at motion boundaries. We present a novel, noniterative approach for segmentation from image motion, based on two voting processes, in different dimensional spaces. By expressing the motion layers as surfaces in a 4-D space, a voting process is first used to enforce the smoothness of motion and determine an estimation of pixel velocities,...
متن کاملPerceptual Grouping from Motion Cues Using Tensor Voting in 4-D
We present a novel approach for motion grouping from two frames, that recovers the dense velocity field, motion boundaries and regions, based on a 4-D Tensor Voting computational framework. Given two sparse sets of point tokens, we encode the image position and potential velocity for each token into a 4-D tensor. The voting process then enforces the motion smoothness while preserving motion dis...
متن کاملImage Registration with Global and Local Luminance Alignment
Inspired by tensor voting, we present luminance voting, a novel approach for image registration with global and local luminance alignment. The key to our modeless approach is the direct estimation of replacement function, by reducing the complex estimation problem to the robust 2D tensor voting in the corresponding voting spaces. No model for replacement function is assumed. Luminance data are ...
متن کاملLayered 4D Representation and Voting for Grouping from Motion
We address the problem of perceptual grouping from motion cues by formulating it as a motion layers inference from a sparse and noisy point set in a 4D space. Our approach is based on a layered 4D representation of data, and a voting scheme for token communication, within a tensor voting computational framework. Given two sparse sets of point tokens, the image position and potential velocity of...
