Systems and methods that facilitate image motion analysis are described herein. According to a first image motion analysis technique a first image is warped according to a locally affine model. The first warped image and a second image are compared and a match between the first warped image and the second image is discovered. A value for a motion parameter is estimated based on the match. According to a second image motion analysis technique, an image sequence is converted into an input matrix. A column of the input matrix corresponds to a vectorized image related to the image sequence. The input matrix is approximated with a low rank matrix having a lower rank than the input matrix. One or more outliers of the input matrix are detected.
