The objective of this module is to present the main concepts and technologies that are necessary for image sequence analysis. In the first place, we will present the applications of image sequence analysis and the different kind of data where these techniques will be applied: mono-camera video sequences, multi-camera and depth camera sequences. Both theoretical bases and algorithms will be studied. Main subjects will be motion segmentation, background subtraction, motion estimation both in 2D and 3D, tracking algorithms and model-based analysis. Higher level techniques such as gesture or action recognition and video retrieval will also be studied. Students will work on a project on traffic monitoring where they will apply the concepts learned in the course.
