Effects of texture addition on optical flow performance in images with poor texture

作者:

Highlights:

• An initial step for optical flow estimation in poorly-textured images is proposed.

• The simple yet effective step preserves motion boundaries where other methods fail.

• The proposed algorithm reduces computation time meaningfully.

• Mathematical analysis is employed to explain the advantages provided.

• Quantitative measures have been introduced to assess the performance.
