This paper presents pixel-based and region-based parametric motion segmentation methods for robust motion segmentation with the goal of aligning motion boundaries with those of real objects in a scene. We first describe a two-step iterative procedure for parametric motion segmentation by either motion-vector or motion-compensated intensity matching. We next present a region-based extension of this method, whereby all pixels within a predefined spatial region are assigned the same motion label. These predefined regions may be fixed-or variable-size blocks or arbitrary-shaped areas defined by color or texture uniformity. A particular combination of these pixel-based and region-based methods is then proposed as a complete algorithm to obtain the best possible segmentation results on a variety of image sequences. Experimental results showing the benefits of the proposed scheme are provided. (C) 1998 Academic Press.

Depth assisted object segmentation in multi-view video Cigla, Cevahir; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2008-01-01) In this work, a novel and unified approach for multi-view video (MVV) object segmentation is presented. In the first stage, a region-based graph-theoretic color segmentation algorithm is proposed, in which the popular Normalized Cuts segmentation method is improved with some modifications on its graph structure. Segmentation is obtained by recursive bi-partitioning of a weighted graph of an initial over-segmentation mask. The available segmentation mask is also utilized during dense depth map estimation ste...
TEMPORALLY CONSISTENT LAYER DEPTH ORDERING VIA PIXEL VOTING FOR PSEUDO 3D REPRESENTATION Turetken, Engin; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2009-05-06) A new region-based depth ordering algorithm is proposed based on the segmented motion layers with affine motion models. Starting from an initial set of layers that are independently extracted for each frame of an input sequence, relative depth order of every layer is determined following a bottom-to-top approach from local pair-wise relations to a global ordering. Layer sets of consecutive time instants are warped in two opposite directions in time to capture pair-wise occlusion relations of neighboring lay...
Simple method for particle tracing in 2-D unsteady flows Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı (null; 1997-01-01) A particle tracing method integrated into an unsteady Navier-Stokes solver with structured 2-D grids is presented. Particles may be released anywhere in the flowfield and are traced in time by convecting them with the local flow velocity. The localization of the particles is based on a sequential and directional search algorithm. The search algorithm provides interpolation weights at the localization point, which is needed to evaluate the local flow velocity. The method is applied to unsteady flow-fields ov...
Multi Camera Visual Surveillance for Motion Detection Occlusion Handling Tracking and Event Recognition Akman, Oytun; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Çiloğlu, Tolga (null; 2008-10-05) This paper presents novel approaches for background modeling, occlusion handling and event recognition by using multi-camera configurations that can be used to overcome the limitations of the single camera configurations. The main novelty in proposed background modeling approach is building multivariate Gaussians background model for each pixel of the reference camera by utilizing homography-related positions. Also, occlusion handling is achieved by generation of the top-view via trifocal tensors, as a resu...
Domain compression via anisotropic metamaterials designed by coordinate transformations Ozgun, Ozlem; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (Elsevier BV, 2010-02-01) We introduce a spatial coordinate transformation technique to compress the excessive white space (i.e. free-space) in the computational domain of finite methods. This approach is based on the form-invariance property of Maxwell's equations under coordinate transformations. Clearly, Maxwell's equations are still satisfied inside the transformed space, but the medium turns into an anisotropic medium whose constitutive parameters are determined by the coordinate transformation. The proposed technique can be em...
