Robust visual tracking based on occlusion detection and particle redistribution

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Occlusion inference is an extremely difficult problem in visual tracking, especially when the target is occluded fully. In this paper, we proposed a novel visual tracking algorithm to solve this problem, which is based on occlusion edge detection and particle redistribution. Firstly, it judges whether there is occlusion or not. Then if the target happen to be occluded, the occlusion edge is able to be detected. Finally particles are assigned to redistribute around the occlusion edge. Once the target appears again from occlusion, the tracker could capture the target at the same moment. The algorithm could make tracking appeared objects or part of objects occurring in any frame. Experimental results verified that the proposed method outperforms traditional particle filter tracker.
