چکیده

In this paper, we present an improved mean shift for robust object tracking in complex environment. Traditional RGB color model used in mean shift tracker is sensitive to interference from similar background. In order to solve this problem, a new saliency-color target model is proposed through using the state-of-the-art target representation and updated background-weighed method. In addition, traditional mean shift method using fixed tracking window may cause tracking errors when target becomes close to or far away from the camera. Therefore, tracking window with self-adjust scheme is proposed in this paper. The tracking region parameters are updated through affine transform of feature corner datasets between adjacent frames. Moreover, a new prediction strategy is utilized to track the target with fast motion and partial occlusion. Experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed method, which can track object robustly under similar background, size changing, partial occlusion, etc. Copyright © 2014 IFSA Publishing, S.

Using 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...

اصلاح ردیاب انتقال متوسط برای ردگیری هدف با الگوی تابشی متغیر

The mean shift algorithm is one of the popular methods in visual tracking for non-rigid moving targets. Basically, it is able to locate repeatedly the central mode of a desirable target. Object representation in mean shift algorithm is based on its feature histogram within a non-oriented individual kernel mask. Truly, adjusting of the kernel scale is the most critical challenge in this method. ...

Applying 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...

Mean-Shift based Object Tracking Algorithm using SURF Features

Mean-Shift tracking is primarily used for carrying out localized search on an image frame using colour histograms. The application of mean-shift tracking directly to SURF features is limited due to the unavailability of sufficient number of key points for a given object. This paper proposes a method called re-projection to overcome this limitation so that the mean-shift algorithm can be used di...

Mean-Shift Tracking with Random Sampling

In this work, boosting the efficiency of Mean-Shift Tracking using random sampling is proposed. We obtained the surprising result that mean-shift tracking requires only very few samples. Our experiments demonstrate that robust tracking can be achieved with as few as even 5 random samples from the image of the object. As the computational complexity is considerably reduced and becomes independen...
