New tracking method based on Kalman filter
Template updating method is the key of the success of the matching and tracking algorithm. In order to improve the performance of the tracking algorithm using template matching, a new method for tracking rigid objects in image sequences is proposed after analyzing many template updating methods. A Kalman filter is used to update the template dot by dot instead of renewing it as a whole, and make it adapt to changes in object orientation, illumination and occlusion. The new method improves the performance of the image matching and tracking. The experiments testify the algorithm′s efficiency.
