چکیده

Mean-Shift tracking gained a lot of popularity in computer vision community. This is due to its simplicity and robustness. However, the original formulation does not estimate the orientation of the tracked object. In this paper, we extend the original mean-shift tracker for orientation estimation. We use the gradient field as an orientation signature and introduce an efficient representation of the gradient-orientation space to speed-up the estimation. No additional parameter is required and the additional processing time is insignificant. The effectiveness of our method is demonstrated on typical sequences.

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...

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...

Spatiotemporal Oriented Energy Features for Visual Tracking

This paper presents a novel feature set for visual tracking that is derived from “oriented energies”. More specifically, energy measures are used to capture a target’s multiscale orientation structure across both space and time, yielding a rich description of its spatiotemporal characteristics. To illustrate utility with respect to a particular tracking mechanism, we show how to instantiate ori...

A Novel Approach Coloured Object Tracker with Adaptive Model and Bandwidth using Mean Shift Algorithm

The traditional color-based mean-shift tracking algorithm is popular among tracking methods due to its simple and efficient procedure, however, the lack of dynamism in its target model makes it unsuitable for tracking objects which have changes in their sizes and shapes. In this paper, we propose a fast novel threephase colored object tracker algorithm based on mean shift idea while utilizing a...
