Beyond pixels : exploring new representations and applications for motion analysis
The focus of motion analysis has been on estimating a flow vector for every pixel by matching intensities. In my thesis, I will explore motion representations beyond the pixel level and new applications to which these representations lead. I first focus on analyzing motion from video sequences. …

Learning to handle occlusion for motion analysis and view synthesis
… and disocclusion is critical in analyzing motion and forecasting changes. For example, when we see a car gradually blocks our view of a human figure, we know that either the car or the human is moving. We also know that the human behind the car will be visible again if we move to other …
