Local grouping for optical flow
Optical flow estimation requires spatial integration, which essentially poses a grouping question: what points belong to the same motion and what do not. Classical local approache...

What do color changes reveal about an outdoor scene?
In an extended image sequence of an outdoor scene, one observes changes in color induced by variations in the spectral composition of daylight. This paper proposes a model for the...
