Abstract

In this paper we apply a novel pose estimation algorithm to the tracking problem. We make use of error measures of the algorithm which enable us to characterize the quality of an estimated pose. The key idea of the tracking algorithm is random start local search. The principle of the heuristic relies upon a combination of iterative improvement and random sampling. While in many approaches a manually designed object representation is assumed,w e overcome this condition by using accumulated object representations and combine these successfully with the tracking algorithm.
