Weighting Observations: The Use of Kinematic Models in Object Tracking
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a model-based object tracking system that updates the configuration parameters of an object model based upon information gathered from a sequence of monocular images. Realistic object and imaging models are used to determine the expected visibility of object features, and to determine the expected appearance of all visible features. We formulate the tracking problem as one of parameter estimation from partially observed data, and apply the Extended Kalman Filtering (EKF) algorithm. The models are also used to determine what point feature movement reveals about the configuration parameters of the object. This information is used by the EKF to update estimates for parameters, and for the uncertainty in the current estimates, based on observations of point features in monocular images.

متن کاملUsing a Novel Concept of Potential Pixel Energy for Object Tracking
Abstract In this paper, we propose a new method for kernel based object tracking which tracks the complete non rigid object. Definition the union image blob and mapping it to a new representation which we named as potential pixels matrix are the main part of tracking algorithm. The union image blob is constructed by expanding the previous object region based on the histogram feature. The pote...
متن کاملMoving Objects Tracking Using Statistical Models
Object detection plays an important role in successfulness of a wide range of applications that involve images as input data. In this paper we have presented a new approach for background modeling by nonconsecutive frames differencing. Direction and velocity of moving objects have been extracted in order to get an appropriate sequence of frames to perform frame subtraction. Stationary parts of ...
متن کاملOnline multiple people tracking-by-detection in crowded scenes
Multiple people detection and tracking is a challenging task in real-world crowded scenes. In this paper, we have presented an online multiple people tracking-by-detection approach with a single camera. We have detected objects with deformable part models and a visual background extractor. In the tracking phase we have used a combination of support vector machine (SVM) person-specific classifie...
