Abstract

Motions of physical objects relative to a camera as observer naturally occur in everyday lives and in many scientific applications. Optical flow represents the corresponding motion induced on the image plane. This paper describes the basic problems and concepts related to optical flow estimation together with mathematical models and computational approaches to solve them. Emphasis is placed on common and different modeling aspects and to relevant research directions from a broader perspective. The state of the art and corresponding deficiencies are reported along with directions of future research. The presentation aims at providing an accessible guide for practitioners as well as stimulating research work in relevant fields of mathematics and computer vision.
