In this dissertation we apply sparse constraints to improve optical flow and
trajectories. We apply sparsity in two ways. First, with 2-frame optical flow, we
enforce a sparse representation of flow patches using a learned overcomplete dictionary. Second, we apply a low rank constraint to trajectories via robust coupling. We begin with a review of optical flow fundamentals. We discuss the commonly used flow estimation strategies and the advantages and shortcomings of each. We introduce the concepts associated with sparsity including dictionaries and low rank matrices. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2014. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection
