Tracking Object Using Particle Filter and DCT Features
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we proposed an object tracking method for video stream based on conventional particle filter. Feature vectors are extracted from coefficient matrices of Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). The feature, as experiment showed, is very robust to occlusion and rotation and it is not sensitive to scale changes. The proposed method is efficient enough to be used in a real-time application. The experiment is carried out on some common used datasets in literature. The result is satisfied and showed the estimated trace follows the target object very closely. Keywords-Object tracking, particle filter, DCT

Convolutional Gating Network for Object Tracking
Object tracking through multiple cameras is a popular research topic in security and surveillance systems especially when human objects are the target. However, occlusion is one of the challenging problems for the tracking process. This paper proposes a multiple-camera-based cooperative tracking method to overcome the occlusion problem. The paper presents a new model for combining convolutiona...
متن کاملAn Efficient Target Tracking Algorithm Based on Particle Filter and Genetic Algorithm
In this paper, we propose an efficient hybrid Particle Filter (PF) algorithm for video tracking by employing a genetic algorithm to solve the sample impoverishment problem. In the presented method, the object to be tracked is selected by a rectangular window inside which a few numbers of particles are scattered. The particles’ weights are calculated based on the similarity between feature vecto...

متن کاملApplying mean shift and motion detection approaches to hand tracking in sign language
Hand gesture recognition is very important to communicate in sign language. In this paper, an effective object tracking and hand gesture recognition method is proposed. This method is combination of two well-known approaches, the mean shift and the motion detection algorithm. The mean shift algorithm can track objects based on the color, then when hand passes the face occlusion happens. Several...
