This enables the functionality of automatic object identification and confirmation across views and platforms. The capability of the system comes from three ingredients: 1) image context enlargement through temporal integration; 2) robust motion estimation using the G-RANSAC framework with a relaxed correspondence criteria; 3) constrained motion estimation within the G-RANSAC framework. The proposed system has worked successfully on thousands of frames from multiple collections with significant variations in scale and resolution.
