Abstract

Various examples are directed to systems and methods for detecting regions in video frames. For example, a computing device may receive a video comprising a plurality of frames and a video frame sequence of the plurality of frames. The computing device may select a plurality of scene point location from a first frame. The computing device may determine a plurality of columns in the first frame and fit a first sinusoidal function to a distribution of average column Y-axis displacements for the plurality of columns by column position. The computing device may determine a first difference based at least in part on the first scene point Y-axis displacement and an output of the first sinusoidal function at the X-axis position of the first scene point and determine that the first difference is greater than a threshold distance.
