P.R. Meulemans and R.G. Wilson, Feature Extraction for Very Low Bit Rate Video Coding (August 1, 1995).

Abstract

The work described in this report is part of a project aimed at the design of an image sequence (video) coding method for very low bit-rates. The coding method will use multiresolution affine motion estimation combined with extracted image features to make accurate inter-frame predictions. This report is mainly concerned with extracting linear features (i.e lines and edges) from an image and combining them into more complex features that represent object boundaries in the image. The linear features are extracted in a multiresolution scheme from local frequency estimates provided by the Multiresolution Fourier Transform (MFT).
