Abstract
Multiresolution matching techniques for motion-induced change lead naturally to a hierarchical refinement of three-dimensional properties such as edge location, surface shape, spatial layout, and motion parameters. A hierarchical representation of these relationships is useful for subsequent analysis of more symbolic properties. Aggregate information about larger surfaces is available at the coarser levels of the hierarchy. This can be used to normalize values at finer levels so that detailed, local properties are not hidden by grosser effects.
