Abstract:Local motion detectors can only provide the velocity component perpendicular to a moving line that crosses their receptive field, leading to an ambiguity known as the "aperture problem". This problem is solved exactly for rigid objects translating in the screen plane via the intersection of constraints (IOC). In natural scenes, however, object motions are not restricted to fronto-parallel translations, and several objects with distinct motions may be present in the visual space. Under these conditions the usua… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
