The DIS optical flow is so amazing, it's so fast and accurate!
And I read the paper Fast Optical Flow using Dense Inverse Search, it has done lots of experiments and analysis. But I still have a quesion, why not use bilateral weight in sparse optical flow densify stage? The optical result has smearing at edges of objects, will bilateral weight be helpful for this phenomenon? Or change the smooth term in variational refinement stage? Allowing for discontinuies at edges?
Have you ever tried these strategies?
