The approach employs spatio-temporal flow models learned through observing typical movements of the object, to decompose image motion into independent object and camera motions. The spatio-temporal flow models of the object motion are represented as a set of orthogonal flow bases that are learned using principal component analysis of instantaneous flow measurements from a stationary camera. These models are then employed in scenes with a moving camera to extract motion trajectories relative to those learned. The performance of the algorithm is demonstrated on several image sequences of rigid and articulated bodies in motion}, keywords = {articulated bodies, camera image motion, camera image motions, CAMERAS, composite independent object, composite object estimation, Computer vision, Educational institutions, Image sequences, instantaneous flow measurements, Laboratories, Layout, Motion analysis, Motion estimation, motion trajectories, orthogonal flow bases, Principal component analysis, spatio-temporal flow models, tracking, Vehicles}, isbn = {0-7695-0164-8}, doi = {10.1109/ICCV.1999.791217}, author = {Yacoob,Yaser and Davis, Larry S.} }
