An adaptive digital image stabilization based on empirical mode decomposition

An adaptive digital image stabilization method based on empirical mode decomposition is presented in this paper. The frame position signal is firstly decomposed into a series of intrinsic mode functions, and then the intrinsic mode functions that represent the intentional camera motions are adaptively selected to reconstruct the smoothed frame position signal. The experiments show that the proposed digital image stabilization method not only successfully removes the unwanted camera motions but also is parameter independent.
