Outlier removal for motion tracking by subspace separation
Many feature tracking algorithms have been proposed for motion segmentation, but the resulting trajectories are not necessarily correct. In this paper, we propose a technique for removing outliers based on the knowledge that correct trajectories are constrained to be in a subspace of their domain. we first fit an appropriate subspace to the detected trajectories using RANSAC and then remove outliers by considering the error behavior of actual video tracking. Using real video sequences, we demonstrate that our method can be applied if multiple motions exist in the scene. We also confirm that the separation accuracy is indeed improved by our method.
