Kernel-Based Object Tracking
, 2003
"... A new approach toward target representation and localization, the central component in visual tracking of non-rigid objects, is proposed. The feature histogram based target representations are regularized by spatial masking with an isotropic kernel. The masking induces spatially-smooth similarity fu ..."

A survey on visual surveillance of object motion and behaviors
- IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics
, 2004
"... Abstract—Visual surveillance in dynamic scenes, especially for humans and vehicles, is currently one of the most active research topics in computer vision. It has a wide spectrum of promising applications, including access control in special areas, human identification at a distance, crowd flux stat ..."

Data fusion for visual tracking with particles
- Proc. IEEE
, 2004
"... Abstract—The effectiveness of probabilistic tracking of objects in image sequences has been revolutionized by the development of particle filtering. Whereas Kalman filters are restricted to Gaussian distributions, particle filters can propagate more general distributions, albeit only approximately. ..."

. Although this fact has been acknowledged before, it has not been fully exploited within a visual tracking context. Here we introduce generic importance sampling mechanisms for data fusion and discuss them for fusing color with either stereo sound, for tele-conferencing, or with motion, for surveillance
Fusion with Diffusion for Robust Visual Tracking
"... A weighted graph is used as an underlying structure of many algorithms like semisupervised learning and spectral clustering. If the edge weights are determined by a single similarity measure, then it hard if not impossible to capture all relevant aspects of similarity when using a single similarity ..."

. Moreover, it is not necessary to explicitly construct the TPG in our framework. Finally all diffused pairs of similarity measures are combined as a weighted sum. We demonstrate the advantages of the proposed approach on the task of visual tracking, where different aspects of the appearance similarity
Tracking Loose-limbed People
, 2004
"... We pose the problem of 3D human tracking as one of inference in a graphical model. Unlike traditional kinematic tree representations, our model of the body is a collection of loosely-connected limbs. Conditional probabilities relating the 3D pose of connected limbs are learned from motioncaptured tr ..."

Filters, Random Fields and Maximum Entropy . . .
- INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTER VISION
, 1998
"... This article presents a statistical theory for texture modeling. This theory combines filtering theory and Markov random field modeling through the maximum entropy principle, and interprets and clarifies many previous concepts and methods for texture analysis and synthesis from a unified point of vi ..."

sampler is adopted to synthesize texture images by drawing typical samples from p(I), thus the model is verified by seeing whether the synthesized texture images have similar visual appearances
Efficient Visual Tracking by Probabilistic Fusion of Multiple Cues
"... It has been shown that integrating multiple cues will increase the reliability and robustness of a vision system in situations that no single cue is reliable. In this paper, we propose a method by fusing multiple cues (i.e., the color cue and the edge cue). In contrast to previous work, we propose a ..."

a novel shape similarity measure which includes the spatial distribution of, the number of, and the gradient intensity of the edge points. We integrate this shape similarity measure with our recently proposed SMOG-based color similarity measure in the framework of particle filter (PF). Experimental
Probabilistic Tracking in a Metric Space
- in ICCV
, 2001
"... A new, exemplar-based, probabilistic paradigm for visual tracking is presented. Probabilistic mechanisms are attractive because they handle fusion of information, especially temporal fusion, in a principled manner. Exemplars are selected representatives of raw training data, used here to represent p ..."

Tracking known three-dimensional objects
- In Proceedings of AAAI-82
, 1982
"... A method of visually tracking a known three-dimensional object is described. Predicted object position and orientation extrapolated from previous tracking data are used to find known features in one or more pictures. The measured image positions of the features are used to adjust the estimates of ob ..."

Tightly Integrated Sensor Fusion for Robust Visual Tracking

, 2002
"... This paper presents novel methods for increasing the robustness of visual tracking systems by incorporating information from inertial sensors. We show that more can be achieved than simply combining the sensor data within a statistical filter. In particular we show how, in addition to using inertial ..."
