This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the International
Dagstuhl-Seminar on Statistical and Geometrical Approaches to Visual Motion Analysis held in
Dagstuhl Castle Germany in July 2008. The workshop focused on critical aspects of motion
analysis including motion segmentation and the modeling of motion patterns. The aim was to
gather researchers who are experts in the different motion tasks and in the different
techniques used also involved were experts in the study of human and primate vision. The 15
revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from or initiated by the
lectures given at the workshop. The papers are organized in topical sections on optical flow
and extensions human motion modeling biological and statistical approaches alternative
approaches to motion analysis.
