Problems solved by technology

However, when the environment around the target is more complex, it will interfere with the results of the camshift algorithm, usually causing the tracking window to diverge, which in turn causes the target to be lost

Abstract

The invention provides a Camshift-based target tracking method. The method includes the following steps that: a search window is initialized; the color probability distribution map, namely, reverse projection map, of a search area is calculated; the meanshift method is adopted to obtain the new size and position of a target, namely a new window; the previously obtained window is adopted as a new window for a next frame of video image; and with the window obtained through using the meanshift method adopted as a center, the size of the search window is adaptively adjusted, and an actual target window under an ideal condition is estimated by using a color histogram, similarities between models in the result of the meanshift method, the adjusted search window and the estimated target window and the actual target model are compared, and the window corresponding to the model which is the most similar to the actual target model is adopted as a result. With the method of the invention adopted, the stability of target tracking can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing and target tracking, and in particular relates to a camshift-based target tracking method. Background technique [0002] Target recognition and tracking has always been a hot research issue in the field of computer vision, and it has important value in military, security, transportation and other fields. In the actual environment, the posture of the moving target usually changes, and the surrounding environment of the target is usually complex, which will greatly interfere with the tracking results. [0003] The mean shift (meanshift) algorithm and the camshift (continuously adaptive mean-shift) algorithm based on it are widely used because of their rapidity. Especially the camshift algorithm can well adapt to the deformation problem of the target. However, when the environment around the target is more complex, it will interfere with the results of the camshift algorithm, usually causi...
