Evaluation of Image Sequences: A Look Beyond Applications

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series ((ASIC,volume 77))

Abstract

Rastering of a digital image usually reflects the spatial coordinates of the optical image which is projected onto the sensor. Stacking images to a sequence allows to record a third dimension which in most applications corresponds to time. Selected applications are classified according to the techniques they use in order to extract or handle the temporal variations of phenomena recorded in the sequence. The intensity variations of a translating object image are approximately described by equations which are used to estimate the frame-to-frame displacement. Recently reported refinements to this estimation approach are discussed.
