PERSISTENT FEATURE DESCRIPTORS FOR VIDEO
First Claim
1. A method of extracting feature descriptors for a video, in a video feature descriptor extractor, the video including a sequence of pictures, the method comprising:
- identifying a first key picture and a second key picture later in the sequence than the first key picture;
extracting a first set of feature descriptors from the first key picture and a second set of feature descriptors from the second key picture;
identifying a set of pairs of feature descriptors, where each pair includes one descriptor from the first set and one descriptor from the second set;
generating motion information describing the motion field between the first key picture and the second key picture; and
filtering the set of pairs of feature descriptors based on correlation with the motion information to produce and output a subset of persistent descriptors.

Abstract
Methods and devices for extracting feature descriptors for a video, the video having a sequence of pictures. The method includes identifying a first key picture and a second key picture later in the sequence than the first key picture; extracting a first set of feature descriptors from the first key picture and a second set of feature descriptors from the second key picture; identifying a set of pairs of feature descriptors, where each pair includes one descriptor from the first set and one descriptor from the second set; generating motion information describing the motion field between the first key picture and the second key picture; and filtering the set of pairs of feature descriptors based on correlation with the motion information to produce and output a subset of persistent descriptors.

13. A video feature descriptor extractor for extracting feature descriptors for a video, the video including a sequence of pictures, the video feature descriptor extractor comprising:
-
a processor; memory; and an encoding application containing instructions executable by the processor that, when executed, cause the processor to identify a first key picture and a second key picture later in the sequence than the first key picture; extract a first set of feature descriptors from the first key picture and a second set of feature descriptors from the second key picture; identify a set of pairs of feature descriptors, where each pair includes one descriptor from the first set and one descriptor from the second set; generate motion information describing the motion field between the first key picture and the second key picture; and filter the set of pairs of feature descriptors based on correlation with the motion information to produce and output a subset of persistent descriptors. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing processor-executable instructions for extracting feature descriptors for a video, the video including a sequence of pictures, wherein the processor-executable instructions, when executed by a processor in a video feature descriptor extractor, cause the processor to:
-
identify a first key picture and a second key picture later in the sequence than the first key picture; extract a first set of feature descriptors from the first key picture and a second set of feature descriptors from the second key picture; identify a set of pairs of feature descriptors, where each pair includes one descriptor from the first set and one descriptor from the second set; generate motion information describing the motion field between the first key picture and the second key picture; and filter the set of pairs of feature descriptors based on correlation with the motion information to produce and output a subset of persistent descriptors.
