Unsupervised dynamic texture segmentation using local spatiotemporal descriptors

Dynamic texture (DT) is an extension of texture to the temporal domain. In this paper, we address the problem of segmenting DT into disjoint regions in an unsupervised way. Each region is characterized by histograms of local binary patterns and contrast in a spatiotemporal mode. It combines the motion and appearance of DT together. Experimental results show that our method is effective in segmenting regions that differ in their dynamics.
