MODEL-BASED VELOCITY ESTIMATION USING THE KALMAN FILTER
Kohtaro Ohba, Tadashi Ishihara, Hikaru Inooka · Journal of Flow Visualization and Image Processing · 1993
In this article we propose a model-based method for estimating the velocities of unsteady viscous two-dimensional flow from a series of images. Assuming that the motion in the image plane is described by an affine transformation, we propose an adaptive Kalman filter algorithm that includes the identification of the dynamic model. Experimental results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
