A comparative evaluation of algorithms for fast computation of level set PDEs with applications to motion segmentation

Abstract
We address the problem of fast computation of level set partial dif- ferential equations (PDEs) in the context of motion segmentation. Although several fast level set computation algorithms are known, some of them, such as the fast marching method, are not applica- ble to the video segmentation problem since the front being com- puted does not advance monotonically. We study narrow-banding, pyramidal and a pyramidal/narrow-banding schemes that leads to a 70-fold time gain over the single-resolution scheme.
