Especially for the goal of estimating motion accurately and efficiently sparse-to-dense interpolation schemes for feature point matches have shown outstanding performances. Concurrently, local optical flow methods have been significantly improved with respect to long-range motion estimation in environments with varying illumination. This motivates us to propose a sparse-to-dense approach based on the Robust Local Optical Flow method. We study the performance of different efficient motion vector interpolation techniques for recent optical low benchmarks. Compared state-of-the-art method the proposed approach is significantly faster while remaining competitive accuracy on Middlebury, KITTI 2015 and MPI-Sintel data-set.} }
