Periodicity Detection - PMUCOS Method

PMUCOS discovers all periodic parts of a video sequence

You are now following this Submission

This code is a simple implementation of OF PMUCOS METHOD PROPOSED IN [1].
PMUCOS solves the problem of discovering all periodic segments of a video and of estimating their period in
a completely unsupervised manner. These segments may be located anywhere in the video, may differ in duration, speed, period and may represent unseen motion patterns of any type of objects (e.g., humans, animals, machines, etc).

A newer periodicity detection method is proposed in [2].
