This paper improves technique to speed up video Inpainting for Video Repairing. This approach
reduces search area by using 2D slices rather than 3D patches. In this method RANSAC algorithm
for Estimation of Transformation block, KLT Algorithm for feature tracking and Max compiler is
used to compile C programming and reduces processing time. To overcome over-smoothing
problem method finds best match to give the good results in less time. This method also tries to
maintain spatial consistency and temporal motion continuity simultaneously of an object.
Homemade video includes jitter (unintended motion) and some kind of intentional motion such
as pan or zoom. Viewers preferred always to see jitter free videos, created by smoothly moving
camera. Sometimes in video analysis contrast, aligning to fix stable background is preferred. This
paper presents simple algorithm which is able to remove both types of motion by using an
efficient way to track background points while ignore moving foreground points. This approach is
mostly similar to image mosaicing but result is video rather than an enlarged image. It is related
with multiple objects tracking approach but quite simpler due to moving objects tracking is not
needed. The algorithm receives a video input and returns one or multiple stabilized videos. Video
breaks into parts when algorithm detects background change and it fix upon a new background.

I. INTRODUCTION
There are two types of motions which dominate the videos taken by a person with a help of hand-held
camera. First is intentional motion such as panning or zooming and second are unintentional motions
which are unwanted shakes and jitters. Some recent work on video stabilization tries to remove shakes
and jitters while smoothing the most probably intended motion. This is done by firstly identifying
common features in the scene and estimating frame-to-frame movement of these features. Then,
algorithms work as follows: 1) Takes estimation of original camera motion, 2) fit proposed model for
capturing smoothed most probably intended camera motion, 3) solve for transformation matrices for
each frame merging them with new stabilized video without jitter and apparently smooth camera
motion.
In recent work done the same approach is by Grundmann et al.[6], demonstrate the context of YouTube a
robust algorithm for stabilizing the video to produce a final video which appears a shot due to improper
handling by a professional cameraman. In some situation, associated with video analysis, where goal
stabilizes a video in respective of its background and accordingly removes clear observed camera motion
entirely. Many reasons are here to remove camera motions such as stabilization of videos which enables
background modeling[16], makes object’s motion more clear to human and observers both. There are
some modes where goal of removing camera motion is not practical. Where cameras are mounted on
moving vehicles, more complications are involves multiple object tracking and camera modeling is

required. In the same manner this work on stabilization, works incorporates with detection of salient
features [6], Lucas and Kanade tracking[6,11], RANSAC [6] to test potential feature correspondences, and
at last motion modeling is done in terms of frame-to-frame alignment transforms [6]. The best two
aspects in this algorithm are such as, it introduces staged multi-frame mechanism to introduce new
salient features in tracking procedure and takes decisions that whether a salient points are part of stable
background based on measurements over multiple frames. Transformation matrix that registers frame t
to the background is computed using features initially detected in frame t - 2. These features are tracked
to frame t - 1 by using Lucas-Kanade Tomasi algorithm and their motion is compared with camera
motion at t - 1. Those features which move consistently with camera and potential background points are
forwarded to frame t, whereas features with inconsistent motion are presumed to be foreground features
and are dropped. Result consider transformation matrix at time t is estimated by applying RANSAC
algorithm and motion modeling to set of features on background points and have persisted for two time
steps. Respectively transformation at time t + 1 is estimated from features previously extracted at time t -
1. This type of feature selection process adds robustness which provides more positive approach towards
the procedure. Result shows that this method sort registration errors better than the techniques which
are previously worked. The most prior work follows by some difference relative directly from goal of
stabilizing relative to a fixed background. In this approach, final step of generating the stabilized video
establishes common reference frame and mapping of all frames back to this reference one. In this process
of mapping videos to a common reference frame for video repairing is mostly done as image mosiacing
[3]. This paper enlist some points as follows: - reviewed video stabilization and image mosaicing related
work, our video stabilization algorithm, an experimental evaluation comparing this method with
alternative methods based on prior work for video stabilization and image mosaicing algorithms in the
literature.
II. RELATED WORK
The main aim of Video Stabilization is to remove unwanted motion. It is almost impossible for any
general person to hold camera and may not be introduce small but rapid movements such as jitters.
Video Stabilization algorithms are often takes an estimate of smooth camera motion path from video
frame data [11]. Grundmann et al. [6] presented a robust method for finding an L1- optimal Camera path
to generate stabilized videos. Basically this algorithm is based on Linear Programming framework which
finds optimal frame partitions of smooth camera path. Path modeling itself having fitting portions of the
path to constants, linear and parabolic motion models. A cropped window of fixed aspect ratio (AR) is
moved along with that optimal path to include salient points or regions when minimizing L1 smoothness
constraint. The main goal is that to stabilize video such that it might have been shot by a professional
cinema photographer using expensive physically stabilized cameras. Such a video is feeling pleasant for
human viewers.
III. OVERVIEW COMMON
Previous work on image alignment or image mosaicing is more closely related to goal of creating
stabilized backgrounds is closer than the recent work on video stabilization for smooth camera motion
trajectories. Objectives of both work shares common aspects such as extracting matching features in
successive frames. Features like harris corners [3], SIFT features or Good features [12, 4] can be used for
feature selection. Features matching techniques as correlation of a window centered about to feature
point[3], or tracking methods as Lucas Kanade Tracker [12] or Kalman Filters [4] are mostly used for
tracking features from frame to frame. Frame-to-frame motion models also play a vital role in the same
algorithm. Many Transformations of degrees of freedom (DOF) are common, together with likeness

transform (4 DOF) [13], affine transform (6 DOF)[7] or homography transform (8 DOF)[4,3,12]. Such
transformations are regularly estimates from the matching features between pairs of video frames. When
Experiment takes place it is observed that balance must be struck between the ability to model is more
complex forms where the need to find more matching features is simple. To constrain the additional DOF,
further higher DOF motion models are used due to their much larger space of possible solutions and
sometimes they are susceptible to settling on unrealistic frame-to-frame motions. A major problem in
this algorithm is that how to decide which matched features is to be use. If scene containing independent
moving objects then all feature are not matches between frames and that are associated with the
dominant motion. Feature points on independently moving object if included in calculation of the
dominant motion then estimate will throw off. Then it is compulsory to describe feature pairs by inliers
or outliers relative to motion estimation. To separate outliers and inliers, RANSAC [3] or LMeS (Least
Median of Squares) [12] are mainly used.
IV. SPECIFIC PRIOR EFFORTS
Real-time scene video stabilization demonstrated by Hansen et al. [7], Their VFE-100 system introduced
a multi-resolution iterative method using the Laplacian pyramid images. Each iteration contain optical
flow estimation is done by using cross correlation of current image and previous image at particular
pyramid level. A linear motion model is fit to optical flow and previous image is merged with that model.
In next iteration optical flow estimation is done in between merged previous image and the current one
image at higher resolution level of pyramid. Morrimoto and Chellappa [13] proposed fast and robust
implementation of 2-D electronic image stabilization. This method selects the features on horizon by
thresholding and dividing Laplace of image into vertical zones and selecting topmost feature of every
zone. The selected features are tracked from ft - 1 to the frame ft by a multi-resolution scheme and also
involving Laplacian pyramids. feature points at every pyramid level is in frame ft is searched over
window centered about point in frame ft - 1 and point which returns the minimum SSD is finest match.
Estimation obtained at coarse level is used to search for minimum SSD at finer level of Laplace pyramid.
At last Least square solution is used for estimation of the similarity matrix from corresponding point.
Motion matrices are then combined from reference frame to current frame and current frame is merged
with accumulated motion model.
An image mosiacing algorithm employing these techniques by Capel and Zisserman[3]. In that system a
window-based localized correlation score used to match harris corners in between two consecutive
frames. RANSAC discards outlier points and estimate homography that was well defined matched inliers.
At last estimation of corresponding points and homography were advanced using non-linear optimizer
by minimizing euclidean distance between original feature points and corrected feature points of
correspondences. In that method cost was minimized using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. Censi et
al. [4] approaches for image mosaicing with the feature tracking. This algorithm tracks best features [17]
in each subsequent frames of a sequence using linear Kalman filter. Predicted position of feature point is
extracted from predicted state of Kalman filter and neighborhood of predicted position is searched for
minimum SSD(sum of square difference) errors to find corresponding feature points. This system used
robust rejection rule x84 [5] to identify the outliers. The residual of each feature is calculated and the
feature whose residual differs by more than 5.24 MAD from the median residual discards an outlier.
Another image mosaics example was used in wide area surveillance. Mei et al. [12] presented background
retrieval system which detect Good Features in the reference frame and tracks them over subsequent
frames using Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi [17] tracker algorithm for obtaining frame-to-frame
correspondences. Homography estimation from those correspondences and Least Median of Squares

(LMeS) algorithm are used to remove outliers. Mixture of Gaussians (MoG) [16], proposes background
modeling procedure to separate stable background from points of interest.
Heikkila et al. [8], proposes an automatic image mosaicing method for the wide area surveillance. In that
method extracts the SIFT features from incoming images and constructs a mosaic image. RANSAC method
used to reject outliers and parameters of homography are filtered by using Levenberg Marquardt
algorithm for minimizing geometric cost function defined over inliers. In another example of Image
Alignment SIFT Flow, Liu et al. [9], proposed system which uses pyramid based on discrete flow
estimation algorithm to match SIFT descriptors between two consecutive images and defines
neighborhood for SIFT flow. Dual layer loopy believes propagation used to minimize objective functions
at each pyramid level, which constrains SIFT descriptor to matched flow vector and constrain flow
vectors of adjacent pixels to be alike. This system’s primary estimates corresponding images of different
scene categories. However it uses for registration of similar scenes satellite images.
V. ALIGNMENT TO A COMMON REFERENCE
Alignment of frames in video comparing with reference frame will results in video where frames
appeared motionless except borders where content background changes [2]. Two issues are arises when
alignment to reference frame. 1) Accumulating the errors in motion estimation can lead to unacceptable
errors relative to reference frame. 2) Amount by which new frame overlaps to reference frame can grow
too small. Man and Picard [10], solves this type of problem by splitting frames into a subsets which can
be best registered. Comparing these algorithms that align video to common reference frame involves
both evaluating breaks and quality of aligned subsets of frames. Morimoto and Chellappa [14], proposed
fidelity measure which corresponds to Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) in between the stabilized
consecutive frames. The PSNR is function of Mean squared error which is average departure/pixel from
desire stabilized result.
VI. STABILIZATION ALGORITHMS
The previous algorithms described here take one video input and return one/more videos, each of them
will be stabilized with respect to stationary reference frame. In another manner, goal is for background to
remaining fixed throughout which returned video. Input videos broken when the camera motions so
alters objects visible in background. There is no longer possibility to align a video with a common
reference. Criterion for breaking video is discussed further. Four algorithms are described further. Each
carries out broadly three operations such as: 1) Feature extraction and feature mapping between the
consecutive frames, 2) Frame to frame motion estimation from correspondences and 3) Motion
compensation. In general these steps are described further.
VII. Frame to Frame Motion Estimation
In general, camera motions are estimated from feature point correspondences. Features points are
extracted, selected, and matched across frames, and then affine motions between consecutive frames are
calculated from these tracked points. For frames ft and ft - 1 the affine transform may be expressed as:
�����1 � � ��1,1 �1,2 �1,3�2,1 �2,2 �2,30 0 1 � ��� 1�� 11 �
International Journal of Advance Foundation and Research in Computer (IJAFRC)
Volume 1, Issue 5, May 2014. ISSN 2348 - 4853
48 | © 2014, IJAFRC All Rights Reserved www.ijafrc.org
This is a standard choice of motion model. The 6 degrees of freedom affine has six unknown parameters,
and three point correspondences generate six linear constraints equations. Thus match between any
three features in one frame to next, typically define an alignment transformation. When 8DOF
experiments with homographies, we found that the result shows worse than the 6 DOF transform.
RANSAC algorithm is used to find affine transformation supported by majority features. After each
iterations of RANSAC, three point-wise correspondences are elected at random and used them for
estimation of affine motion matrix. Estimated motion matrix checks how many points are lies in
consensus set. If percentage of points that are fits estimated affine model is more than threshold method
stops and declares that model is good. The points those were fit this model known as inliers and the
remaining are known outliers. After obtaining inliers from RANSAC algorithm, method performs a linear
least square solution for obtaining final affine inliner matrix.
RANSAC algorithm pre assumes point wise corresponding feature points in between two frames. It can be
done by two way of finding corresponding match feature points used in algorithms as follows. One is base
on feature similarity means match measure similarity between feature points expressed in the feature
space. The same approach is used by Heikkila et al. [8], SIFT features to describe SIFT points is used.
Other is a tracker to move points forward from frame t - 1 to the frame t. Mei et al. [12], used Lucas
Kanade Tomasi feature tracker [18]. Algorithm below uses an iterative pyramidal implementation of KLT
base on optical flow to provide robustness to large displacements [1].
VIII. MOTION COMPENSATION
In this approach one frame is taken as reference frame and next frame is registered to this reference
frame. Suppose if Hi represents affine transform between the frames i and i - 1 and if reference frame is
H0, then frame i can be mapped to first frame by composition of transformations:
H1…….i = H1, H2, H3………Hi Equation 1
Given motion model of frames i with respect to reference frame, then this method merge frame i using
inverse of H1….i. Merging frames means the projection of each pixel coordinate to source image by
motion matrix to new coordinate in destination image. For estimated pixel value in destination image
sampling is done in reverse mode which is going from destination to source. For each pixel (x, y) of
destination image functions compute coordinates of corresponding “donor pixel”, in source image and
copy pixel value such as mentioned below.
dst (x,y) = src (fx (x,y), fy (x,y)) Equation 2
Where fx (x,y) and fy (x,y) are merging functions. Since fx (x,y) and fy (x,y) are seldom integers, bilinear
interpolation which is used for obtaining new interpolated pixel values. When fx (x,y), fy (x,y) or both fall
outside the source image, then dst(x,y) is set to zero.
IX. CRITERIA FOR BREAKING VIDEOS
This algorithm introduces breaks in to two events. Very first if excessive amount of panning is detected
means where majority of non-visible pixels in reference frame, then break is created. Such a type of break
is triggered by monitoring fraction of pixels in current frame that lies outside reference frame when
mapped back to reference frame using accumulated motion model (H1…..i). At certain condition this

algorithm typically set to break video, if more than half of the total pixels in the current frame are lies
outside reference frame. And in another condition this triggers for break as per excessive scaling in
transformation matrix. This type of trigger makes the sense in this domain because this algorithm works
with camera pan but not with zoom in/out during single video. Triggers are implemented by monitoring
determinant of accumulated motion model H1….i. If ratio drifts too far from 1:0, means it start scaling
background relative to reference frame then break is created. In general for this an algorithm, if
determinant falls outside range 0:95 to 1:05 then video are broken. It is observed in experiment that,
determinant of motion matrix lies very close to 1:0 for frame to frame estimates. The determinant always
remains within 1 ± Ɛ, where Ɛ is in order of 10-4. It is also observed in cases where errors accumulated
in accumulated motion model H1…..i, as per previous discussion and starting with a new reference
becomes necessary. Experiments test revealed which is used Homography transform which tends to
cause “skew” at large instance and perspective errors. Due to this testing for these errors in turn leads for
more breaks. The process becomes lengthy for stabilizing videos using techniques in [8,12], which used
for homography transforms. However, we solve this led to large number of video breaks, and
subsequently changed the implementations by using affine models.
X. Proposed Algorithm
The intelligent algorithm introduced here uses a two staged process to refresh set of SIFT feature points
that are tracked using the KLT algorithm. Motivation behind this design a new system for background
inpainting for video repairing by the use of Lucas-Kanade Tomasi algorithm and KLT Transform, RANSAC
algorithm and homography transform speedup the inpainting approach. In this algorithm computational
need to create pair wise correspondences from scratch in each successive frame is solved. It depends on
initialization step where points which are to be tracked that established based on first frames of video. As
tracking proceeds, set of points being tracked and shrinks in size. Points are getting dropped when KLT
algorithm cannot establish with confidence in new position in a new frame. If the scene got change then,
there is no mechanism for refreshing tracked points.

This algorithm solve both problems through an iterative process which constantly refreshes group of
SIFT features which are being tracked. Figure 2 shows algorithm for a singl
points enters in frame in each iteration: 1) Set of inliers extracted from two frames previous to current
frame and 2) Set of fresh points extracted from previous frame. Inliers t from previous frame is to be
used by RANSAC to estimate motion of current frame with respect to previous frame. Once motion is
estimated then inliers are totally discarded. Fresh points are then tested for compatibility with estimated
motion between current and previous one frame and points which are c
on next frame as new set of inliers. Fresh applicant of SIFT features were extracted from current frame
and passed it as fresh points to next frame. Here recent algorithm is described as Robust Staged RANSAC
Tracking algorithm. For initialization tracking algorithm in Figure 2, we need bootstrap frame, SIFT
features extraction is done from initial frame. KLT Algorithm updates position of these features in next
frame and RANSAC compute motion and separate inliers from outlier
frame as inliers and new set of SIFT features are extracted from first frame and passed as staged fresh
points for second frame.

XI. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS
In this method for each pair of images it sorts frame to frame pixel differences by magnitude and take
sum of all differences below the median. Those pixels are lies outside the video frame, are ignored. This
type of errors is normalized by number of pixels which are a part of video content of the two frames. This
error condition is slightly complex because score checks how well the background is to be reconstructed
while ignoring the pixel differences occurred due to moving objects. N
accumulated for consecutive frames, except there are breaks and pairs in frames across registration
where breaks are ignored. Here different threshold levels are used when creating breaks in video. Circled
points indicate default algorithm configurations which points need to be transfer. This algorithm checks
whether the determinant of accumulated motion model H1….i, falls outside the range 0:95 to 1:05 then
those errors does not accumulate in accumulated motion model. When range
numbers of breaks are increases. The frames which are lies in between breaks are finely registered and
have lower overall errors. At a broader range, breaks are decrease but overall error scores are increase.

efficiently tracks the inliers and trying for maintaining number of tracked points may not decrease over
time. This technique used first frame as the reference frame. In future, challenge would be to select a
reference frame dynamically which optimizes number of breaks and stabilization error. As a result, frame
to frame motion is estimated and aligned more strongly than in previous techniques. In this technique
algorithm tries to decrease the computation time. But it is not suitable in such a domain, where camera is
mobile or continuously zoom-in/Zoom-out. In such a critical condition, a goal of registering frame to
fixed reference frame is not suitable.
