MULTIPLE TARGET TRACKING SYSTEM INCORPORATING MERGE, SPLIT AND REACQUISITION HYPOTHESES

摘要

A tracking system having a video detector for associating observations of blobs and objects and deriving objects' or blobs' paths. Hypotheses may be computed by the system for merging, splitting and reacquisition of the observations. There may be objects tracked among the observations, and best paths selected as trajectories of corresponding objects. The observations may be placed in a sliding window containing a series of observations inferred from a collection of frames for improving the accuracy of the tracking (or data association). The processed observations and data may be represented graphically.
