This paper described an algorithm for computing the optical flow (OF) vector of a moving objet in a video sequence based on geometric wavelet transform (GWT). This method tries to calculate the motion between two successive frames by using a GWT. It consists to project the OF vectors on a basis of geometric wavelet. Using GWT for OF estimation has been attracting much attention. This approach takes advantage of the geometric wavelet filter property and requires only two frames. This algorithm is fast and able to estimate the OF with a low-complexity. The technique is suitable for video compression, and can be used for stereo vision and image registration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
