Abstract

This paper presents the parallelization of the particle filter algorithm in a single target video tracking application. In this document we demonstrate the process by which we parallelized the particle filter algorithm, beginning with a MATLAB implementation. The final CUDA program provided approximately 71x speedup over the initial MATLAB implementation.
