  • Abstract
    A Markov random field (MRF) formulation for the problem of optical flow computation is studied. An adaptive window matching scheme is used to obtain a good measure of the correlation between the two images. A confidence measure for each match is also used. Thus, the input to the system is the adaptive correlation and the corresponding confidence. The MRF model is then used to estimate the velocity field and the velocity discontinuities. The problem of occlusions is addressed, and a relationship between occlusions and motion discontinuities is established
