Abstract
A return point acquiring unit refers to both a first optical flow from an image to an image, and a second optical flow from the image to the image, to acquire the coordinates of a return point which is an end point of the second optical flow. An accuracy calculating unit calculates the accuracy of the optical flows on the basis of the difference between the coordinates of a start point of the first optical flow and the coordinates of the return point acquired by the return point acquiring unit.
Claims3
An optical flow accuracy calculating device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions, upon executed by the processor, causing the processor to perform a process to:
- refer to both a first optical flow from one of two images to another one of the two images, and a second optical flow returning from an end point of the first optical flow to a start point of the first optical flow, to acquire coordinates of a return point which is an end point of the second optical flow;
- and
- calculate, as accuracy of the optical flows between the two images, a value which is a result of dividing by a square root of 2 a root mean square error between coordinates of the start point of the first optical flow and the coordinates of the return point acquired from the end point of the second optical flow.
