Abstract(in English) In computing the optical flow, Horn and Schunck's method which is a representative algorithm is based on differentiation. Therefore it is difficult to estimate the velocity for a large displacement by this algorithm. In this paper, we propose a method for estimating nonuniform motion from sequential images which is based on integral brightness constancy constraints. The equations which transform a source image to a target image are expressed as a function of the displacement field. If marginal effects can be neglected, the form of the transformation integral transform or orthognal expansion can be determined from the expansion coefficients of the two images. The apparent displacement field is then computed iteratively by a projection method which utilizes the functional derivatives of the linearized moment equations. The accuracy of the computed motion is tested by comparing the transformed source image with the target image. We demonstrate that the performance of the orthognal function transform on the data set of large motion movement, shows the reliability and effectiveness of the method.
