PT Unknown AU Naveen Onkarappa Angel Sappa TI An Empirical Study on Optical Flow Accuracy Depending on Vehicle Speed BT IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium PY 2012 BP 1138 EP 1143 DI 10.1109/IVS.2012.6232263 AB Driver assistance and safety systems are getting attention nowadays towards automatic navigation and safety. Optical flow as a motion estimation technique has got major roll in making these systems a reality. Towards this, in the current paper, the suitability of polar representation for optical flow estimation in such systems is demonstrated. Furthermore, the influence of individual regularization terms on the accuracy of optical flow on image sequences of different speeds is empirically evaluated. Also a new synthetic dataset of image sequences with different speeds is generated along with the ground-truth optical flow. ER
