Optical flow using color information: preliminary results

AIRES, Kelson R. T.; SANTANA, André M.; MEDEIROS, Adelardo A. D. Optical flow using color information: preliminary results. In: ANNUAL ACM SYMPOSIUM ON APPLIED COMPUTING, 23., 2008, Fortaleza. Proceedings... Fortaleza: SAC, 2008.

Optical flow cannot be completely determined only from brightness information of images, without introducing some assumptions about the nature of movements in the scene. Color is an additional natural source of information that facilitates the solution of this problem. This work aims to illustrate the improvement in the optical flow estimation by using color information through experimental results
