Abstract

The paper proposes a parametric approach for color based tracking. The method fragments a multimodal color object into multiple homogeneous, unimodal, fragments. The fragmentation process consists of multi level thresholding of the object color space followed by an assembling. Each homogeneous region is then modelled using a single parametric distribution and the tracking is achieved by fusing the results of the multiple parametric distributions. The advantage of the method lies in tracking complex objects with partial occlusions and various deformations like non-rigid, orientation and scale changes. We evaluate the performance of the proposed approach on standard and challenging real world datasets.
