Python bindings to the optical flow framework of Horn & Schunck
Project description
Python Bindings to Horn & Schunck’s Optical Flow Framework
This package is a simple Python wrapper to an open-source Optical Flow estimator based on the works by Horn & Schunck:
@article{Horn_Schunck_1981,
author = {Horn, B. K. P. and Schunck, B. G.},
title = {Determining optical flow},
year = {1981},
booktitle = {Artificial Intelligence},
volume = {17},
pages = {185--203},
}
The implementation is purely based on Bob:
@inproceedings{Anjos_ACMMM_2012,
author = {Anjos, Andr\'e AND El Shafey, Laurent AND Wallace, Roy AND G\"unther, Manuel AND McCool, Christopher AND Marcel, S\'ebastien},
title = {Bob: a free signal processing and machine learning toolbox for researchers},
year = {2012},
month = oct,
booktitle = {20th ACM Conference on Multimedia Systems (ACMMM), Nara, Japan},
publisher = {ACM Press},
url = {http://publications.idiap.ch/downloads/papers/2012/Anjos_Bob_ACMMM12.pdf},
}
This package also provides a unit testing framework, to check on the accuracy of results produced in different platforms. The testing framework also requires OpenCV for comparison purposes.
