Claim One:
1. A method for removing a dominant motion from a video sequence comprising a plurality of video frames, the method comprising: receiving a selection of a key frame in the plurality of video frames; for each pair of consecutive video frames, determining a homography defining a dominant motion between the pair of consecutive video frames by performing a geometrically biased historically weighted random sample consensus (RANSAC) method on a calculated motion of a set of matched feature points between the pair of consecutive video frames, the geometrically biased historically weighted RANSAC method using a cost function that gives a weight to the calculated motion of each feature point based on a set of historical metrics calculated for the feature point; utilizing the determined homographies, to calculate a motion of each corner of each video frame in the video sequence other than the key frame with respect to a corresponding corner of the key frame based a difference between a position of each corner of the video frame and a position of a corresponding corner of the key frame; and removing the dominant motion between the key frame and other video frames by using the calculated motion of each corner of each video frame.
