Abstract

The two fundamental advantages of video over still imagery are: (i) the ability capture temporal information, and (ii) the ability to acquire a continuously varying set of views of a scene. These advantages are obtained, however, at the cost of vastly increased amount of data. This paper describes an approach to video representation that is based on frame-to-frame alignment, mosaic construction, and 3D parallax recovery. The basic motivation behind our approach is to enable rapid access to the contents, while maintaining the data in a form as close to the source as possible. This representation supports a wide variety of applications that involve transmission, storage, visualization, retrieval, analysis, and manipulation of video sequences.
