Abstract

In this paper a novel algorithm for estimating the parametric form of the camera motion is proposed. A novel stochastic vector field model is presented which can handle smooth motion patterns derived from long periods of stable camera movement and also can cope with rapid motion changes and periods where camera remains still. A set of rules for robust and online updating of the model parameters is also proposed, based on the Expectation Maximization algorithm. Finally, we fit this model in a particle filters framework, in order to predict the future camera motion based on current and prior knowledge.
