Abstract :
In absence of a truly reliable confidence measure for optical flow, this paper points out a few methods, how optical flow estimation results can be tested for reliability and accuracy. We are especially interested in how to make use of complementary information in the visible and infrared spectrum in a multi-sensor environment.
