Visual Tracking in Occlusion Environments using Particle Filter with Autonomous Switching Mechanism of Targets
Jun-ichi Imai, Masahide Kaneko (UEC)
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Visual tracking is required by many vision applications. However, in daily living spaces where some of such applications are assumed to be used, stable tracking is often difficult because there are many objects which are possible to cause the visual occlusion. In this paper, to handle this occlusion problem, we propose a novelmethod for visual tracking by a particle filter, which switches tracking targets autonomously. In our method, if an occlusion occurs during the tracking, the model of the occluder is dynamically created and the tracking target is switched to this model. Thus, our method enables the tracker to indirectly track the "invisible target" by switching its target to the occluder properly. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our method.
