Abstract: System and computer-implemented method for editing a video sequence with temporal consistency. The method includes the steps of: computing a motion field modeling temporal consistency between successive frames; defining an energy functional modeling the desired properties to be enforced on the video sequence; splitting the video sequence into two sets with even frames and odd frames; computing the motion field between consecutive frames on the splitted sequences; recursively performing steps until the sets to be split contain one frame to edit; minimizing the energy functional for each set containing one frame to edit; merging the edited frames and outputting the edited video sequence.
