Computer Analysis of Time-Varying Imagery

Abstract

This report documents the study of computer analysis of time-varying imagery. The research is on the development of techniques which locate, track, identify and characterize a single rigid target moving in an image sequence in which the camera platform is also moving. The accomplished work is more than what was originally proposed. A summary of the primary products of this research follows: 1. A moving target detection algorithm; 2. A window tracking and predicting algorithm; 3. A corner matching algorithm: 4. A near natural language mechanism for describing motion; 5. A procedure for extracting target images; 6. A background motion estimation algorithm; and 7. A database of time-varying stereo imagery. Further research based on the accomplished work is briefly discussed.
