Aplicaciones del caos determinista a la detección de outliers

[EN]In this paper the authors show that techniques employed in the prediction of chaotic time series" can also be applied to detection of outliers. A definition of outlier" lS provided and a theorem on hypothesis testing is also proved.

Robust optical flow estimation

[EN] In this work, we describe an implementation of the variational method proposed by Brox et al. in 2004, which yields accurate optical flows with low running times. It has several benefits with respect to the method of Horn and Schunck: it is more robust to the presence of outliers, produces piecewise-smooth flow fields and can cope with constant brightness changes. This method relies on the brightness and gradient constancy assumptions, using the information of the image intensities and the image gradients to find correspondences. It also generalizes the use of continuous L1 functionals, which help mitigate the efect of outliers and create a Total Variation (TV) regularization. Additionally, it introduces a simple temporal regularization scheme that enforces a continuous temporal coherence of the flow fields.
