A new class of fractional-order variational optical flow models, which generalizes the differential of optical flow from integer order to fractional order, is proposed for motion estimation in this paper. The corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations are derived by solving a typical fractional variational problem, and the numerical implementation based on the Grünwald-Letnikov fractional derivative definition is proposed to solve these complicated fractional partial differential equations. Theoretical analysis reveals that the proposed fractional-order variational optical flow model is the generalization of the typical Horn and Schunck (first-order) variational optical flow model and the second-order variational optical flow model, which provides a new idea for us to study the optical flow model and has an important theoretical implication in optical flow model research. The experiments demonstrate the validity of the generalization of differential order.
Summary
This paper addresses the Mittag‐Leffler stabilization for an unstable time‐fractional anomalous diffusion equation with boundary control subject to the control matched disturbance. The active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) approach is adopted for developing the control law. A state‐feedback scheme is designed to estimate the disturbance by constructing two auxiliary systems: One is to separate the disturbance from the original system to a Mittag‐Leffler stable system and the other is to estimate the disturbance finally. The proposed control law compensates the disturbance using its estimation and stabilizes system asymptotically. The closed‐loop system is shown to be Mittag‐Leffler stable and the constructed auxiliary systems in the closed loop are proved to be bounded. This is the first time for ADRC to be applied to a system described by the fractional partial differential system without using the high gain.
