Abstract:

Visual tracking is a classical computer vision problem with many important applications in areas such as robotics, surveillance and driver assistance. The task is to follow a target in an image sequence. The target can be any object of interest, for example a human, a car or a football. Humans perform accurate visual tracking with little effort, while it remains a difficult computer vision problem. It imposes major challenges, such as appearance changes, occlusions and background clutter. Visual tracking is thus an open research topic, but significant progress has been made in the last few yea

Abstract:

Visual tracking is one of the most important applications of computer vision. Several tracking systems have been developed which either focus mainly on the tracking of targets moving on a plane, or attempt to reduce the 3-dimensional tracking problem to the tracking of a set of characteristic points of the target. These approaches are seriously handicapped in complex visual situations, particularly those involving significant perspective, textures, repeating patterns, or occlusion. This dissertation describes a new approach to visual tracking for monocular and binocular image sequences, and f

Abstract:

Visual tracking concerns the problem of following an arbitrary object in a video sequence. In this thesis, we examine how to use stereo images to extend existing visual tracking algorithms, which methods exists to obtain information from stereo images, and how the results change as the parameters to each tracker vary. For this purpose, four abstract approaches are identified, with five distinct implementations. Each tracker implementation is an extension of a baseline algorithm, MOSSE. The free parameters of each model are optimized with respect to two different evaluation strategies called no

Abstract:

An algorithm for tracking single visual targets is developed in this study. Feature detection is the necessary and appropriate image processing technique for this algorithm. The main point of this approach is to use the data supplied by the feature detection as the observation from a group of targets having similar motion dynamics. Therefore a single visual target is regarded as a group of multiple targets. Accurate data association and state estimation under clutter are desired for this application similar to other multi-target tracking applications. The group tracking approach is used with t

This thesis focuses on visual multiple-target tracking (MTT) from a UAV. Typical state-of-the-art multiple-target trackers rely on an object detector as the primary detection source. However, object detectors usually require a GPU to process images in real-time, which may not be feasible to carry on-board a UAV. Additionally, they often do not produce consistent detections for small objects typical of UAV imagery.In our method, we instead detect motion to identify objects of interest in the scene. We detect motion at corners in the image using optical flow. We also track points long-term to co

Adding additional state information to an evolving curve lifts the curve evolution problem to space dimensions larger than two and thus forbids the use of classical level set techniques.

Abstract:

Visual tracking is the task of repeatedly inferring the state (position, motion, etc.) of the desired target in an image sequence. It is an important scientific problem as humans can visually track targets in a broad range of settings. However, visual tracking algorithms struggle to robustly follow a target in unconstrained scenarios. Among the many challenges faced by visual trackers, two important ones are occlusions and abrupt motion variations. Occlusions take place when (an)other object(s) obscures the camera's view of the tracked target. A target may exhibit abrupt variations in apparent

Abstract:

Using some form of dynamical model in a visual tracking system is a well-known method for increasing robustness and indeed performance in general. Often, quite simple models are used and can be effective, but prior knowledge of the likely motion of the tracking target can often be exploited by using a specially-tailored model. Specifying such a model by hand, while possible, is a time-consuming and error-prone process. Much more desirable is for an automated system to learn a model from training data. A dynamical model learnt in this manner can also be a source of useful information in its own

Abstract:

In this thesis, a novel approach is proposed for multi-speaker tracking by integrating audio and visual data in a particle filtering (PF) framework. This approach is further improved for adaptive estimation of two critical parameters of the PF, namely, the number of particles and noise variance, based on tracking error and the area occupied by the particles in the image. Here, it is assumed that the number of speakers is known and constant during the tracking. To relax this assumption, the random finite set (RFS) theory is used due to its ability in dealing with the problem of tracking a varia

Abstract:

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University<br>Occlusion reasoning for visual object tracking in uncontrolled environments is a challenging problem. It becomes significantly more difficult when dense groups of indistinguishable objects are present in the scene that cause frequent inter-object interactions and occlusions. We present several practical solutions that tackle the inter-object occlusions for video surveillance applications. In particular, this thesis proposes three methods. First, we propose "reconstruction-tracking," an online multi-camera spatial-temporal data association method for track

Abstract:

Au cours des dernières décennies, la production et la consommation de vidéos ont considérablement augmenté et il est communément admis que 80 % du trafic Internet est constitué de vidéos. Dans ce cadre, les vidéos de marketing sont encore dominées par le contenu payant (c'est-à-dire le contenu créé par l'annonceur qui paie un annonceur pour distribuer ce contenu). Cependant, le contenu vidéo organique progresse lentement mais sûrement. Le terme « contenu organique » fait référence à un contenu dont la création et/ou la distribution n'est pas payante. Dans la plupart des cas, il s'agit d'un con

Abstract:

This research presents machine vision techniques to track an object of interest visually in an image sequence in which the target appearance, scale, orientation, shape, and position may significantly change over time. The images are captured using a non-stationary camera in a dynamic environment in a gray-scale format, and the initial location of the target is given. The contributions of this thesis include the introduction of two robust object tracking techniques and an adaptive similarity measure which can significantly improve the performance of visual tracking. In the first technique, th
