The Enhanced Flock of Trackers

چکیده
The paper presents contributions to the design of the Flock of Trackers (FoT). The FoT estimates the pose of the tracked object by robustly combining displacement estimates from a subset of local trackers that cover the object and has been. The enhancements of the Flock of Trackers are: (i) new reliability predictors for the local trackers the Neighbourhood consistency predictor and the Markov predictor, (ii) new rules for combining the predictions and (iii) introduction of a RANSAC-based estimator of object motion. The enhanced FoT was extensively tested on 62 sequences. Most of the sequences are standard and used in the literature. The improved FoT showed performance superior to the reference method. For all 62 sequences, the ground truth is made publicly available.

Clustering Local Motion Estimates for Robust and Efficient Object Tracking
We present a new short-term tracking algorithm called Best Displacement Flow (BDF). This approach is based on the idea of ‘Flock of Trackers’ with two main contributions. The first contribution is the adoption of an efficient clustering approach to identify what we term the ‘Best Displacement’ vector, used to update the object’s bounding box. This clustering procedure is more robust than the me...
متن کاملThe Effects of Metals and Interfering Fields on Electromagnetic Trackers
The operation of six degree-of-freedom electromagnetic trackers is based on the spatial properties of the electromagnetic fields generated by three small coils. Anything in the environment that causes these fields to be distorted will result in measurement noise and/or errors. An experimental investigation was undertaken to measure the effect of external fields present in a typical working envi...
متن کاملFeeding and Managing the Ewe Flock: A New Watch
The number of lambs sold per ewe mated in the breeding flock has a considerable impact on sheep operation profitability. This depends primarily on fertility, prolificacy (# of lambs), and lamb survival, mothering ability, milk production of the ewe and lamb growth rate. Optimal reproduction does vary by environment and management system – some sheep operations don’t want a lambing rate over 200...

متن کاملWearable Enhanced Learning for Healthy Ageing: Conceptual Framework and Architecture of the “Fitness MOOC”
Physical activity is one of the key factors of ageing healthy and at the same time one of the key motivational challenges for the elderly. Supporting healthy ageing through physical fitness requires interventions that promote healthy levels of physical activity as part of the daily routine. Although wearable devices, such as activity trackers or smart wristbands, have been used by younger adopt...
