In contrast to previous global 3-D motion concept, a Gibbs random field based method, which models local interactions between motion parameters defined at each point on the object, is proposed. Anenergy function which gives the joint probability distribution of motion vectors, is constructed. Theenergy function is minimized in order to find the most likely motion vector set. Some convergenceproblems, due to ill-posedness of the problem, are overcome by using the concept of hierarchical rigidity. In hierarchical rigidity, the objects are assumed to he almost rigid in the coarsest level andthis rigidness is weakened at each level until the finest level is reached. The propagation of motioninformation between levels, is encouraged. At the finest level, each point have a motion vector associated with it and the interaction between these vectors are described by the energy function. Theminimization of the energy function is achieved by using hierarchical rigidity, without trapping intoa local minimum. The results are promising.

3-D motion estimation of rigid objects for video coding applications using an improved iterative version of the E-matrix method
Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (1998-02-01)
As an alternative to current two-dimensional (2-D) motion models, a robust three-dimensional (3-D) motion estimation method is proposed to be utilized in object-based video coding applications, Since the popular E-matrix method is well known for its susceptibility to input errors, a performance indicator, which tests the validity of the estimated 3-D motion parameters both explicitly and implicitly, is defined. This indicator is utilized within the RANSAC method to obtain a robust set of 2-D motion correspo...
Correlation tracking based on wavelet domain information
Ipek, HL; Yilmaz, I; Yardimci, YC; Cetin, AE (2003-08-07)
Tracking moving objects in video can be carried out by correlating a template containing object pixels with pixels of the current frame. This approach may produce erroneous results under noise. We determine a set of significant pixels on the object by analyzing the wavelet transform of the template and correlate only these pixels with the current frame to determine the next position of the object. These significant pixels are easily trackable features of the image and increase the performance of the tracker.
Conformal black hole solutions of axidilaton gravity in D dimensions
Cebeci, H; Dereli, T (2002-02-15)
Static, spherically symmetric solutions of axidilaton gravity in D dimensions are given in the Brans-Dicke frame for arbitrary values of the Brans-Dicke constant omega and an axion-dilaton coupling parameter k. The mass and the dilaton and axion charges are determined and a BPS bound is derived. There exists a one-parameter family of black hole solutions in the scale-invariant limit.
ANALYTICAL DYNAMIC-RESPONSE OF ELASTIC CAM-FOLLOWER SYSTEMS WITH DISTRIBUTED-PARAMETER RETURN SPRING
Ünlüsoy, Yavuz Samim; Tümer, Sami Turgut (1993-09-01)
An analytical method of solution for the high-speed dynamic response of a lumped/distributed parameter model for cam-follower systems is developed. The model combines the distributed parameter model of the return spring with a viscously damped, single degree-of-freedom, lumped model of the elastic follower train. The cam event is considered as a periodic motion, of period 360 deg, and is represented by its Fourier series approximation. Linear systems approach utilizing four-pole parameter representation of ...
Dense depth map estimation for multiple view coding
Ozkalayci, Burak; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2006-01-01)
In this paper the basics of a proposed method that handles the stereo and especially multiple view coding problem in a geometrical way, are explained. For this purpose, estimation of the depth maps of the multiple views, captured by fully calibrated cameras, are done. In depth map estimation problem Markov Random Field modelling is used to have a depth map in a desired smoothness and in an efficient coding fashion. The geometric structure which is acquired by the depth map estimation, is used to reconstruct...
