{"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"The extraction of a parametric global motion from a motion field is a task with several applications in video processing. We present two probabilistic formulations of the problem and carry out optimization using the RAST algorithm, a geometric matching method novel to motion estimation in video. RAST uses an exhaustive and adaptive search of transformation space and thus gives – in contrast to local sampling optimization techniques used in the past – a globally optimal solution. Among other applications, our framework can thus be used as a source of ground truth for benchmarking motion estimation algorithms.\n\nOur main contributions are: first, the novel combination of a state-of-the-art MAP criterion for dominant motion estimation with a search procedure that guarantees global optimality. Second, experimental results that illustrate the superior performance of our approach on synthetic flow fields as well as real-world video streams. Third, a significant speedup of the search achieved by extending the model with an additional smoothness prior."}],"month":"11","intvolume":" 4713","alternative_title":["LCNS"],"quality_controlled":0,"publisher":"Springer","day":"09","year":"2007","publication_status":"published","date_published":"2007-11-09T00:00:00Z","volume":4713,"doi":"10.1007/978-3-540-74936-3_21","date_created":"2018-12-11T12:04:35Z","page":"204 - 213","_id":"3681","status":"public","type":"conference","conference":{"name":"DAGM: German Association For Pattern Recognition"},"extern":1,"date_updated":"2021-01-12T07:45:06Z","citation":{"ama":"Ulges A, Lampert C, Keysers D, Breuel T.
