Detection of moving objects in video using a robust motion similarity measure
Hieu Thanh Nguyen, Marcel Worring, Avantika Dev · IEEE Transactions on Image Processing · 2000
This correspondence deals with the segmentation of a video clip into independently moving visual objects. This is an important step in structuring video data for storage in digital libraries. The method follows a bottom-up approach. The major contribution is a new well-founded measure for motion similarity leading to a robust method for merging regions. The improvements with respect to existing methods have been confirmed by experimental results.
