Core Concepts
A novel zero-shot monocular motion segmentation approach that combines the strengths of deep learning and geometric motion models to achieve state-of-the-art performance without any training.
Abstract
The paper proposes a zero-shot monocular motion segmentation method that combines deep learning and geometric motion model fusion. The key highlights are:
The method leverages object proposals generated by deep learning foundation models to identify and track potential moving objects in the video.
It computes two complementary geometric motion models for each object - one based on point trajectories and the other based on optical flow and depth information.
The method constructs pairwise motion affinity matrices for the two motion models and fuses them using co-regularized multi-view spectral clustering to obtain the final motion segmentation.
Experiments show that the proposed method achieves state-of-the-art performance on several motion segmentation benchmarks, even surpassing some supervised methods, despite being zero-shot and not requiring any training.
The ablation study demonstrates the effectiveness of combining different geometric motion models, highlighting the value of the proposed fusion strategy.
Overall, the paper presents a novel zero-shot approach that synergistically integrates deep learning and geometric motion analysis to tackle the challenging problem of monocular motion segmentation in the wild.
