Object Tracking with Gradient Part-Based Models

Article Preview

Abstract:

Partial occlusion and non-rigid variation are challenging problems in object tracking. To address this problem, robust gradient part-based models are proposed for object tracking in this paper. Our models constructed multiple well-chosen parts based on the gradient energy map of the object. And the local optimization algorithm, mean shift, is used to search the best locations of the multiple parts, which can be used to rectify the location of the tracked object by weighted feedback. Meanwhile, the models of the root and parts are updated online, which can improve tracking accuracy and robustness. Further, our models are easy to be embedded into different tracking algorithms and we implement the mean shift based on gradient part-based models. Experiments results show that our gradient part-based models are robust enough for object tracking, even though the objects are non-rigid or occluded.
