Abstract
The objective of this paper is to introduce a fourth-order cost functi on of the displaced frame difference (DFD) capable of estimating motio n even for small regions or blocks. Using higher than second-order sta tistics is appropriate in case the image sequence is severely corrupte d by additive Gaussian noise. Some results are presented and compared to those obtained from the mean kurtosis and the mean square error of the DFD.
