A Visual Tracking Based on Particle Filter of Multi-Algorithm Fusion

Article Preview

Abstract:

A novel visual tracking algorithm based on particle filter with multi-algorithm fusion is proposed. Mean shift is employed to make particles distribute more reasonably in order to maintain tracking accuracy by using fewer particles, and the genetic evolution ideas is introduced to increase the diversity of samples by applying selection, crossover and mutation operator to achieve particles resampling. The experiments show that the tracking performance of the proposed method, compared with Mean Shift Embedded Particle Filter (MSEPF), is significantly improved.
