Abstract
We present a new framework for real-time tracking method of complex non-rigid objects. This new method successfully coped with camera motion, partial occlusions, and target scale variations. The shape of the object tracker is approximated by an ellipse and its appearance by histogram based features derived from local image properties. We use an efficient search scheme (Accept–Reject color histogram-based method (AR), using Bhattacharyya kernel as a similarity measure) to find the image region with a histogram most similar to the target of object tracker. In this paper, we address the problem of scale/shape adaptation and orientation changes of the target. The proposed approach is compared with recent state-of-the-art algorithms. Extensive experiments are performed to testify the proposed method and validate its robustness and effectiveness to track the scale and orientation changes of the target in real-time.
