Abstract

This paper surveys the state of the art in evaluating the performance of scene flow estimation and points out the difficulties in generating benchmarks with ground truth which have not allowed the development of general, reliable solutions. Hopefully, the renewed interest in dynamic 3D content, which has led to increased research in this area, will also lead to more rigorous evaluation and more effective algorithms. We begin by classifying methods that estimate depth, motion or both from multi-view sequences according to their parameterization of shape and motion. Then, we present several criteria for their evaluation, discuss their strengths and weaknesses and conclude with recommendations.
