Abstract
In one embodiment, a method of amplifying temporal variation in at least two images includes converting two or more images to a transform representation. The method further includes, for each spatial position within the two or more images, examining a plurality of coefficient values. The method additionally includes calculating a first vector based on the plurality of coefficient values. The first vector can represent change from a first image to a second image of the at least two images describing deformation. The method also includes modifying the first vector to create a second vector. The method further includes calculating a second plurality of coefficients based on the second vector.
