• Abstract: Optical flow estimation is an important computer vision task, which aims at estimating the dense correspondences between two frames. RAFT (Recurrent All Pairs Field Transforms) currently represents the state-of-the-art in optical flow estimation. It has excellent generalization ability and has obtained outstanding results across several benchmarks. To further improve the robustness and achieve accurate optical flow estimation, we present PRAFlow (Pyramid Recurrent All-Pairs Flow), which builds upon the pyramid network structure. Due to computational limitation, our proposed network structure only uses two pyramid layers. At each layer, the RAFT unit is used to estimate the optical flow at the current resolution. Our model was trained on several simulate and real-image datasets, submitted to multiple leaderboards using the same model and parameters, and won the 2nd place in the optical flow task of ECCV 2020 workshop: Robust Vision Challenge.

  We present a novel two-stream feature fusion "Tensor-Convolution and Convolution-Transformer Network" (TCCT-Net) architecture. To better learn the meaningful patterns in the temporal-spatial domain, we design a "CT" stream that integrates a hybrid convolutional-transformer. In parallel, to efficiently extract rich patterns from the temporal-frequency domain, we introduce a "TC" stream that uses Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) to represent information in a 2D tensor form.

  In optical flow estimates in and near cluded regions, and out-of-boundary regions are two of the current significant limitations of optical flow estimation algorithms. Recent state-of-the-art optical flow estimation algorithms are two-frame based methods where optical flow is estimated sequentially for each consecutive image pair in a sequence. We propose a learning-based multi-frame optical flow estimation method that estimates two or more consecutive optical flows in parallel from multi-frame image sequences.
