Learning Static Occlusions from a Moving Figure

MovieMovie

In this movie, the upper left quadrant shows a figure moving through an indoor scene. The upper right quadrant shows the perimeter of that figure. Lower left quadrant shows a short term sum of certain perimeter pixels that have been selected as likely to lie on the boundary between the moving figure and an occluding body. Lower right quadrant shows a long term sum of the lower left quadrant, where grey indicates zero, black indicates negative values, and white indicates positive values. Negative and positive values correspond to the left and right edges of the occluding body. (9.8MB)
