Video Tracking Using Dual-tree Wavelet Polar Matching and Particle Filtering
نویسندگان
چکیده
Detection and tracking of a known target in video sequences is a common and important problem in image processing. In this paper, we will focus on the scenario of an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) platform based image sensor as it attempts to track a ground vehicle traversing a cluttered urban environment. The objective is to provide a good estimate of the position and velocity of the vehicle in grid coordinates, and be robust against brief period of occlusions.

Tracking Ground Based Targets in Aerial Video with Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Polar Matching and Particle Filtering
The detection and tracking of targets in aerial imagery of cluttered urban environments is addressed. Polar matching, using dual-tree complex wavelet transforms, is used as a shift and rotation invariant detector. A particle filter is employed to add robustness, especially in the event of target occlusion. We show that, together, these methods can robustly track a ground based target as it beco...
متن کاملVideo Tracking Using Dual-Tree Wavelet Polar Matching and Rao-Blackwellised Particle Filter
We describe a video tracking application using the dual-tree Polar Matching Algorithm. We develop the dynamical and observation models in a probabilistic setting and study the empirical probability distribution of the Polar Matching output. We model the visible and occluded target statistics using Beta distributions. This is incorporated into a Track-Before-Detect (TBD) solution for the overall...
متن کاملDual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform Based Video Object Tracking
This paper presents a new method for tracking of an object in video sequence which is based on dual tree complex wavelet transforms. Real valued wavelet transform, mostly used in tracking applications, suffers from lack of shift invariance and have poor directional selectivity. We have used dual tree complex wavelet transform in tracking because it avoids shortcomings of real wavelet transform....
متن کاملSpatio-Temporal Auxiliary Particle Filtering With ℓ1-Norm-Based Appearance Model Learning for Robust Visual Tracking
In this paper, we propose an efficient and accurate visual tracker equipped with a new particle filtering algorithm and robust subspace learning-based appearance model. The proposed visual tracker avoids drifting problems caused by abrupt motion changes and severe appearance variations that are well-known difficulties in visual tracking. The proposed algorithm is based on a type of auxiliary pa...
متن کاملMotion Analysis of 3-d Dual-tree Discrete Wavelet Transform
3-D dual-tree discrete wavelet transform (DDWT) is attractive for video representation since it isolates motion along different directions in its directional subbands, and has been employed for video coding. In this paper, we analyze its efficiency in capturing motion activities. Similar analysis is then extended to 3-D anisotropic DDWT (ADDWT). Experiments verify the effectiveness of our analy...
