Python Bindings to Liu's Optical Flow Framework for Bob

This package is a simple Python wrapper to the open-source Optical Flow estimator developed by C. Liu during his Ph.D. The code was originally conceived to operate over Matlab. This is a Python/Bob port. If you use this code, the author asks you to cite his thesis:

@phdthesis{Liu_PHD_2009,
  title = {{Beyond Pixels: Exploring New Representations and Applications for Motion Analysis}},
  author = {Liu, Ce},
  institution = {{Massachusetts Institute of Technology}},
  year = {2009},
  type = {{Ph.D. Thesis}},
}

If you decide to use this port on your publication, we kindly ask you to cite Bob as well, as the base software framework, on which this port has been developed:

@inproceedings{Anjos_ACMMM_2012,
  author = {Anjos, Andr\'e AND El Shafey, Laurent AND Wallace, Roy AND G\"unther, Manuel AND McCool, Christopher AND Marcel, S\'ebastien},
  title = {Bob: a free signal processing and machine learning toolbox for researchers},
  year = {2012},
  month = oct,
  booktitle = {20th ACM Conference on Multimedia Systems (ACMMM), Nara, Japan},
  publisher = {ACM Press},
  url = {http://publications.idiap.ch/downloads/papers/2012/Anjos_Bob_ACMMM12.pdf},
}

Please read Liu's homepage for details on the code, also displaying the original Matlab port.
