Multiple Feature Fusion for Object Tracking

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNIP,volume 7202))

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel object tracking method by fusing multiple features. The tracking task is formulated under Bayesian inference framework. The posterior probability is resolved by the sum of weighted likelihood observations. Graph based semi-supervised learning method is used for likelihood evaluation, and the distance between foreground and background histograms is used for weight estimation. We evaluate our tracking algorithm on some popular benchmark videos and achieve competitive results compared with some state-of-art algorithms.
