Interacting Multiple Model LK Tracking

Article Preview

Abstract:

The nonlinear motion state of object seriously affects the object tracking characteristics in complex motion scene. In this paper, we propose an interacting multiple model LK (IMM-LK) tracking algorithm to enhance the performance of tracking nonlinear moving object. LK tracking approach is based on the localized gradient obtaining stable optical-flow feature, based on LK, we build several motion models of the tracked object that interact with each other in the tracking process. The method extracts different model's object features, estimates the object state and calculates the matching rate of each model with the current motion model using theory of minimum variance. Combining with the optimal transfer matrix then we can track the nonlinear moving object. The proposed IMM-LK algorithm performs favorably against conventional LK tracking on the performance of tracking nonlinear moving object.
