This research aims to suggest methods to improve object tracking performance by combining CAM shift algorithm with 8-way search window, and reduce arithmetic operation by reducing the number of frame used for tracking. CAM shift has its adverse effect in tracking methods using signature color or having difficulty in tracking rapidly moving object. To resolve this, moving search window of CAM shift makes it possible to more accurately track high-speed moving object after finding object by conducting 8-way search by using information at a final successful timing point from a timing point missing tracking object. Moreover, hardware development led to increased unnecessary arithmetic operation by increasing the number of frame produced per second, which indicates efficiency can be enhanced by reducing the number of frame used in tracking to reduce unnecessary arithmetic operation.

An active object tracking algorithm using Pan and Tilt camera based in the stepwise application of region and color information from realtime image sequences is proposed. To reduce environment noises in input sequences, Gaussian filtering is performed first. An image is divided into background and objects by using the adaptive Gaussian mixture model. Once the target object is detected, an initial search window close to an object region is set up and color information is extracted from the region. We track moving objects in realtime by using the CAMShift algorithm which enables to trace objects in active camera with the color information. The proper tracking is accomplished by controlling the amount of pan and tilt to be placed the center position of object into the middle of field of view. The experimental results show that the proposed method is more effective than the hand-operated window method.

본 논문에서는 직사각형 영상에서의 객체 좌표를 회전축과의 각도로 표현하는 방법을 적용한 자동화된 객체추적 알고리즘을 제안한다. 직사각형 영상을 구형으로 맵핑했을 때 객체의 정확한 좌표를 알아내기 위해 비례식을 사용하였다. 실제 영상이 구형 영상으로 맵핑되었을 때, 화면에 보이는 중앙점을 기반으로 실제 영상의 좌측상단 좌표를 구하였다. 앞서 구한 좌표를 이용하여 실제 영상의 좌측상단에서 객체의 이동 거리를 더하면 구형 영상에서 객체의 실제 좌표를 구할 수 있다. 제안한 방법을 통해서 관심 객체의 움직임을 효과적으로 추적하였다.

In this paper, we present a novel method for simultaneous detection and tracking of multiple objects using dual-layer particle filtering. The proposed dual-layer particle sampling (DLPS) algorithm consists of parent-particles (PP) in the first layer for detecting multiple objects and child-particles (CP) in the second layer for tracking objects. In the first layer, PPs detect persons using a classifier trained by the intersection kernel support vector machine (IKSVM) at each particle under a randomly selected scale. If a certain PP detects a person, it generates CPs, and makes an object model in the detected object region for tracking the detected object. While PPs that have detected objects generate CPs for tracking, the rest of PPs still move for detecting objects. Experimental results show that the proposed method can automatically detect and track multiple objects, and efficiently reduce the processing time using the sampled particles based on motion distribution in video sequences.

This paper deals with a color-based tracking of a moving object. Firstly, existing Camshift algorithm is complemented to improve the tracking weakness in the brightness change of an image which occurs in every frame. The complemented Camshift still shows unstable tracking when the objects with same color of the tracking object exist in background. In order to overcome the drawback this paper proposes the Camshift combined with KLT algorithm based on optical flow. The KLT algorithm performing the pixel-based feature tracking can complement the shortcoming of Camshift. Experimental results show that the merged tracking method makes up for the drawback of the Camshit algorithm and also improves tracking performance.

When a video surveillance system tracks a specific object, it is very important to get quickly the information of the object through fast image processing. Usually one camera surveillance system for tracking the object made results in various problems such like occlusion, image noise during the tracking process. It makes difficulties on image based moving object tracking. Therefore, to overcome the difficulties the multi video surveillance system which installed several camera within interested area and looking the same object from multi angles of view could be considered as a solution. If multi cameras are used for tracking object, it is capable of making a decision having high accuracy in more wide space. This paper proposes a method of recognizing and tracking a specific object like a car using the homography in which multi cameras are installed at the crossroad.

이동 객체에 대한 위치 정보의 획득, 저장, 데이터 모델링 방법과 질의 처리 방법에 관한 다양한 연구가 진행됨에 따라 이동 객체의 위치 정보를 획득, 저장, 관리, 질의 처리가 가능한 이동 객체 데이터 베이스 시스템이 등장하고 있다. 그러나 이동중인 사용자가 자신의 요청을 시스템이 제공하는 복잡한 시공간 질의어로 표현하기는 어렵다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 이동 단말기에서 사용자가 편리하게 질의를 요청하고 현재 또는 과거의 위치를 추적하며 이동 객체들에 대한 모니터링을 하기 위한 사용자 인터페이스를 설계하고 이러한 인터페이스를 구현하기 위한 시스템을 설계한다.

With the development of mobile devices and intelligent surveillance system loaded with pan/tilt cameras, object tracking with non-stationary cameras has become a topic with increasing importancy. Since it is difficult to model a background image in a non-stationary camera environment, colors and texture are the most important features in the tracking algorithm. However, colors in the background similar to those in the target arise instability in the tracking. Recently, we proposed a robust color based tracking algorithm that uses an area weighted centroid shift. In this letter, we update the model such that it becomes more stable against background colors. The proposed algorithm also incorporates time filtering by adding an additional energy term to the energy functional.
