Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable storage media for subspace video stabilization. A subspace video stabilization technique may provide a robust and efficient approach to video stabilization that achieves high-quality camera motion for a wide range of videos. The technique may transform a set of input two-dimensional (2D) motion trajectories so that they are both smooth and resemble visually plausible views of the imaged scene; this may be achieved by enforcing subspace constraints on feature trajectories while smoothing them. The technique may assemble tracked features in the video into a trajectory matrix, factor the trajectory matrix into two low-rank matrices, and perform filtering or curve fitting in a low-dimensional linear space. The technique may employ a moving factorization technique that is both efficient and streamable.
