Fast Approach to Video Stabilization Based on Hierarchical Estimation of Global Motion with Parallel Computation

摘要

In this article, a fast approach of video stabilization is presented based on haerachical estimmation of global motion and multi-thread parallel computation. At first, the structure-texture decomposition is adopted to tackle the negative effect from illumination changes. Then according to pyramid structure of image texture a hierachical model is built to estimate global motion parameters with least square method. Afterwards Gaussian smoothing method is employed to eliminate error accumulation in motion compensation. Meanwhile the multi-thread parallel computation is used to speed up the processing efficiency so as to achieve a real time performance for videos with 25fps.
