Infrared Moving Multi-Target Tracking Based on Particle Filter and FCM

Article Preview

Abstract:

An efficient approach based on particle filter and FCM is presented to realize moving infrared multi-target tracking under Island shore background. Some possible targets can be obtained and saved by processing IR data through denoising by median filter, extracting edge, identifying and eliminating sea-sky line, morphological filtering and etc. Data association and robust multi-target tracking can be realized by the proposed particle filter and FCM algorithm. The proposed approach is validated to track multi-target effectively by using actual infrared image sequences with Island shore background. Experiment results indicate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
