A new approach is presented for motion estimation and modeling. The proposed method morphs the final frame of a sequence of motion frames from the initial frame. The morphing parameters are estimated using the intermediate frames. The morphing algorithm uses the warping and cross-dissolve techniques used in the recent morphing algorithms. However, rather then using the displacement of line pairs, a set of control points is used. A new method is proposed for the identification of the control points. For this purpose, the moving pixels are identified and clustered. The cluster centers of the moving pixels are labeled as control points. The number of control points and the motion detection thresholds are identified during the morphing by minimizing the sum of square error between the actual and generated image. The experimental results are very promising and yield very high compression ratios.

A Graph-Based Approach for Video Scene Detection Sakarya, Ufuk; Telatar, Zjya (2008-04-22) In this paper, a graph-based method for video scene detection is proposed. The method is based on a weighted undirected graph. Each shot is a vertex on the graph. Edge weights among the vertices are evaluated by using spatial and temporal similarities of shots. By using the complete information of the graph, a set of the vertices mostly similar to each other and dissimilar to the others is detected. Temporal continuity constraint is achieved on this set. This set is the first detected video scene. The verti...
A generative model for multi class object recognition and detection Ulusoy, İlkay (2006-01-01) In this study, a generative type probabilistic model is proposed for object recognition. This model is trained by weakly labelled images and performs classification and detection at the same time. When test on highly challenging data sets, the model performs good for both tasks (classification and detection).
MULTI-RESOLUTION MOTION ESTIMATION FOR MOTION COMPENSATED FRAME INTERPOLATION Guenyel, Bertan; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2010-09-29) A multi-resolution motion estimation scheme is proposed for tracking of the true 2D motion in video sequences for motion compensated image interpolation. The proposed algorithm utilizes frames with different resolutions and adaptive block dimensions for efficient representation of motion. Firstly, motion vectors for each block are assigned as a result of predictive search in each pass. Then, the outlier motion vectors are detected and corrected at the end of each pass. Simulation results with respect to dif...
An embedding technique to determine tau tau backgrounds in proton-proton collision data Sirunyan, A. M.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2019-06-01) An embedding technique is presented to estimate standard model ττ backgrounds from data with minimal simulation input. In the data, the muons are removed from reconstructed μμ events and replaced with simulated tau leptons with the same kinematic properties. In this way, a set of hybrid events is obtained that does not rely on simulation except for the decay of the tau leptons. The challenges in describing the underlying event or the production of associated jets in the simulation are avoided. The technique...
Object Segmentation in Multi-view Video via Color, Depth and Motion Cues Cigla, Cevahir; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2009-01-01) In the light of dense depth map estimation, motion estimation and object segmentation, the research on multi-view video (MVV) content has becoming increasingly popular due to its wide application areas in the near future. In this work, object segmentation problem is studied by additional cues due to depth and motion fields. Segmentation is achieved by modeling images as graphical models and performing popular Normalized Cuts method with some modifications. In the graphical models, each node is represented b...
