Pyramidal Fisher Motion descriptor

F.M. Castro and M.J. Marin-Jimenez

Quick start

Start Matlab and setup VLFeat library, then, type the following commands:

cd <pfmrootfolder>
addpath(genpath(pwd))
downloadPFMData        % Optional
demopfm

Alternatively, you can run the whole pipeline from an 'avi' video by typing demopipeline in Matlab.

See README.pfm.txt[1,4], README.audio.txt[2], README.prl.txt[3] and README.mva.txt[5] for further details.
