Dynamic estimation of large-scale remote-sensing image sequences is important in a variety of scientific applications. However, the growing size of such sensed images makes conventional dynamic estimation methods, for example the Kalman and related filters, impractical. In this paper we present an approach that emulates the Kalman filter, but with considerably reduced computational and storage requirements. Our approach is illustrated in the context of a large (512 times;512) image sequence of ocean surface temperature.

Conventional optimal estimation algorithms for distributed parameter systems have been limited due to their computational complexity. In this paper, we consider an alternative modeling framework recently developed for large-scale static estimation problems and extend this methodology to dynamic estimation. Rather than propagate estimation error statistics in conventional recursive estimation algorithms, we propagate a more compact multiscale model for the errors. In the context of 1-D diffusion which we use to illustrate the development of our algorithm, for a discretespace process of N points the resulting multiscale estimator achieves O(N log N) computational complexity (per time step) with near-optimal performance as compared to the O(N) complexity of the standard Kalman filter.

The limitations of estimating structure from either stereo or motion alone can be addressed by the use of stereo image sequences; however, many existing techniques for processing stereo sequences rely on having accurate feature correspondences initially. We present an iterative feature matching and shape reconstruction algorithm. The proposed method simultaneously resolves matching ambiguities by multiple hypothesis testing and develops an incrementally accurate and dense representation of the reconstructed object. This approach uses minimal domain specific constraints and can be easily generalised. The method\&$\#$39;s potential is demonstrated in a space vision application.

Statistical estimation of large-scale dynamic systems governed by stochastic partial differential equations is important in a wide range of scientific applications. However, the realization of computationally efficient algorithms for statistical estimation of such dynamic systems is very difficult. Conventional linear least squares methods are impractical for both computational and storage reasons. A previously-developed multiscale estimation methodology has been successfully applied to a number of large-scale static estimation problems. In this paper we apply the multiscale approach to the more challenging dynamic estimation problems, introducing a recursive procedure that efficiently propagates multiscale models for the estimation errors in a manner analogous to, but more efficient than, the Kalman filter\&$\#$39;s propagation of the error covariances. We illustrate our research in the context of 1-D and 2-D diffusive processes
