Abstract

This paper describes a method to estimate parametric motion models. Motivations for the use of such models are on one hand their efficiency, which has been demonstrated in numerous contexts such as estimation, segmentation, tracking and interpretation of motion, and on the other hand, their low computational cost compared to optical flow estimation. However, it is important to have the best accuracy for the estimated parameters, and to take into account the problem of multiple motion. We have therefore developed two robust estimators in a multiresolution framework. Numerical results support this approach, as validated by the use of these algorithms on complex sequences. 1
