Optical Flow Estimation Using Learned Sparse Model
Optical flow estimation is a fundamental and ill-posed problem in computer vision. To recover a dense flow field, appropriate spatial constraints have to be enforced. Recent ad...

Unsupervised motion detection using a markovian temporal model with global spatial constraints
In this work, we propose an unsupervised Bayesian model for the detection of moving objects from dynamic scenes. This unsupervised solution is a three-step approach that uses a st...
