A dynamic texture is a linear dynamical system used to model a single video as a sample from a spatio-temporal stochastic process. In this work, we introduce the mixture of dynamic textures, which models a collection of videos consisting of different visual processes as samples from a set of dynamic textures. We derive the EM algorithm for learning a mixture of dynamic textures, and relate the learning algorithm and the dynamic texture mixture model to previous works. Finally, we demonstrate the applicability of the proposed model to problems that have traditionally been challenging for computer vision.
