Abstract:In this paper, we propose a novel optical flow approach for estimating two-dimensional velocity fields from an image sequence, which depicts the evolution of a passive scalar transported by a fluid flow. The Eulerian fluid flow velocity field is decomposed into two components: a large-scale motion field and a small-scale uncertainty component. We define the small-scale component as a random field. Then the data term of the optical flow formulation is based on a stochastic transport equation, derived from a loc… Show more
