—The CCD camera and the 2D laser range finder are widely used for motion estimation and 3D reconstruction. With their own strengths and weaknesses, low-level fusion of these two ...
Tracking can be achieved using region active contours based on homogeneity models (intensity, motion...). However the model complexity necessary to achieve a given accuracy might ...

Generally, Distributed video coding (DVC) schemes perform motion estimation at the decoder side, without the current frame being available. In order to generate the side-informati...
We present a novel search algorithm which is suitable for optimizing functions with a high-dimensional discrete-valued parameter vector. The algorithm is designed to find a funct...

In this paper, we present an efficient hardware architecture for real-time implementation of quarter-pixel accurate variable block size motion estimation for H.264 / MPEG4 Part 10...
— An imaging sensor made of multiple light-weight non-overlapping cameras is an effective sensor for a small unmanned aerial vehicle that has strong payload limitation. This pape...
Structure and motion estimation from long image sequences is a an important and difficult problem in computer vision. We propose a novel approach based on nonlinear and adaptive ...
This paper presents a denoising method of intra-coded pictures using motion estimation and pixel shift. Firstly, we show that pixel-aligned mixture of distorted images which are s...
In this paper, we propose an algorithm for sustained tracking of humans, where we combine frame-to-frame articulated motion estimation with a per-frame body detection algorithm. T...
