Motion saliency map estimation software

Motion saliency map estimation software

This software estimates motion saliency maps from video frames. Candidate salient regions are first extracted from motion boundaries. Saliency is then estimated with an optical flow inpainting step. The idea is that if the flow reconstructed in candidate regions from the surrounding flow is very different from the flow present originally, the region should be salient with respect to motion.
