Abstract

The performance of the tracking algorithm relies heavily on the target structural information accuracy. In this paper, we propose a robust object tracking method based on the log-Gabor texture and color histogram. Our hypothesis is that by adding log-Gabor filter to color features, and then embedded it in the mean shift framework, tracking performances will notably enhance. Compared with several methods of state-of-the-art mean shift trackers, our approach extracts the target information efficiently. Experimental results on various challenging videos show that the proposed method improves the tracking with fewer mean shift iterations.
