Randomized motion estimation
Motion estimation is known to be a non-convex optimization problem. This non-convexity comes from several ambiguities in motion estimation such as the aperture problem, or fast mo...

Optimization with EM and Expectation-Conjugate-Gradient
We show a close relationship between the Expectation - Maximization (EM) algorithm and direct optimization algorithms such as gradientbased methods for parameter learning. We iden...
