An efficient motion-compensated 3D wavelet video coding system is proposed in this paper. In this new system, spatio-temporal subbands are generated by MC temporal analysis based on an adaptive GOP structure and 2D spatial wavelet transform, and then encoded by a quadtree-based wavelet image coding

higher visual quality due to the increased frame rate. We propose a method for motion compensated frame rate upconversion which reduces upconversion artifacts by combining multiple intermediate interpolations utilizing median filtering. We use an efficient block based motion estimation method which makes

model, (b) the derivation of the equations of motion of the system and (c) the choice of an efficient algorithm for the numerical integration of these equations. In polyatomic molecules, the fast internal vibrations are usually decoupled from

An efficient algorithmic solution to the classical five-point relative pose problem is presented. The problem is to find the possible solutions for relative camera pose between two calibrated views given five corresponding points. The algorithm consists of computing the coefficients of a tenth

correspondences, which reduces the average distance between points in the two sets. Both synthetic and real data have been used to test the algorithm, and the results show that it is efficient and robust, and yields an accurate motion estimate.

We present a data structure and an algorithm for efficient and exact interference detection amongst complex models undergoing rigid motion. The algorithm is applicable to all general polygonal and curved models. It pre-computes a hierarchical representation of models using tight-fitting oriented

Since the Lucas-Kanade algorithm was proposed in 1981 image alignment has become one of the most widely used techniques in computer vision. Applications range from optical flow, tracking, and layered motion, to mosaic construction, medical image registration, and face coding. Numerous algorithms
