GLOMO: MATLAB Toolbox for learning layers from video


GLOMO (Greedy Learning Of Multiple Objects) is a MATLAB Toolbox for learning moving layers (i.e. 2D appearance models of objects or object's parts) from a video sequence. The theoretical foundations of the implemented algorithm can be found in Titsias and Williams (2004), which builds upon the greedy algorithm of Williams and Titsias (2004). A complete description of the algorithm can be also found in my PhD thesis (Titsias, 2005).



Download

The software consists of a set of MATLAB functions that can be downloaded as a compressed tar-file; click here. The software is accompanied with demos (see below) and documentation.



Demos

There are 4 demos included within the software involving three video sequences that you have also to download and place each of them in appropriate directories:

Acknowledgements: We thank Nebojsa Jojic and Brendan Frey for poviding the Fey-Jojic and panaroma sequences.
