Abstract
Motion based segmentation techniques usually begin with an estimate of the velocity flow field and utilise clustering techniques to segment the flow field. This paper investigates the practicality of performing segmentation using the information typically applied to the velocity estimation stage. A region growing process is described that can reliably segment rigid objects observed by moving cameras without requiring shape or motion models.
