Seamless Multiple-Target Tracking Method Across Overlapped Multiple Camera Views Using High-Speed Image Capture

Abstract

Multiple-target tracking across multiple camera views is required for various practical tracking and surveillance applications. This study proposes a seamless tracking method based on label transfer using high-speed image capture. The proposed method does not require camera calibration to estimate the extrinsic parameters, and can be applied with simple line calibration. Therefore, it is effective for large-scale camera networks. In addition, owing to the features of the high-speed image capture and self-window, our method ensures seamless tracking of objects across multiple camera views. The feasibility of the method is proven through an experiment using a high-speed camera network system.
