Abstract

A two step motion segmentation algorithm for the detection of moving objects in image sequences acquired from a moving platform is presented. First, the image plane transformation induced by the moving platform is estimated using a subpixel accuracy image registration algorithm. The registration algorithm is fully automatic and performs well under significant camera rotation and translation. The input images are then transformed into a common coordinate system (for example, the coordinate system of the first image). We then segment the changed regions from the camera motion compensated frame difference. And finally, we detect the moving object from the closure of changing segments and estimate the object motion parameters. Experimental results with real image sequences are presented.
