Motion Segmentation and Estimation

Tina Yu Tian, Mubarak Shah

Abstract: Applies mean field technique and presents a deterministic algorithm to determine the optical flow and motion boundaries. To deal with the problem of large motion, the authors present an adaptive multigrid approach, which also greatly reduces the computation time. This algorithm is fully parallelizable and iterative. The performance of the proposed method is compared against known algorithms using performance measures proposed by Barren et al. [1992]. Experimental results indicate that the present approach provides good estimates of optical flow and motion boundaries.<>
