Extracting dense flow field given a video.

Depencies:

• LibZip: to install on ubuntu apt-get install libzip-dev on mac brew install libzip

For OpenCV 3 Users

Please see the opencv-3.1 branch. Many thanks to @victorhcm for the contributions!

Install

git clone --recursive http://github.com/yjxiong/dense_flow
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. && make -j

Usage

./extract_gpu -f test.avi -x tmp/flow_x -y tmp/flow_y -i tmp/image -b 20 -t 1 -d 0 -s 1 -o dir

• test.avi: input video
• tmp: folder containing RGB images and optical flow images
• dir: output generated images to folder. if set to zip, will write images to zip files instead.

Warp Flow

The warp optical flow is used in the following paper

To extract warp flow, use the command

./extract_warp_gpu -f test.avi -x tmp/flow_x -y tmp/flow_y -i tmp/image -b 20 -t 1 -d 0 -s 1 -o dir
