The DARPA image understanding motion benchmark

Benchmarks and test suites are an essential element of the architectural evaluation process. At the conclusion of the last DARPA workshop on vision benchmarks to test the performance of parallel architectures, it was recommended that the DARPA Image Understanding Benchmark be extended with a second level task to add motion and tracking to the original task. We have now developed this new benchmark and a sample solution. This paper describes the benchmark, and presents some timing results for various common workstations.
