Abstract
Moving object tracking under complex scenes remains to be a challenging problem because the appearance of a target object can be drastically changed due to several factors, such as occlusions, illumination, pose, scale change and deformation. This study proposes an adaptive multi-feature fusion strategy, in which the target appearance is modeled based on timed motion history image with HSV color histogram features and edge orientation histogram features. The variances based on the similarities between the candidate patches and the target templates are used for adaptively adjusting the weight of each feature. Double templates matching, including online and offline template matching, is adopted to locate the target object in the next frame. Experimental evaluations on challenging sequences demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of the proposed algorithm in comparison with several state-of-the-art algorithms.
