| Abstract |
| In this system, we propose a cascaded hierarchical framework for object detection and tracking. We claim that, by integrating both detection and tracking into a unified framework, the detection and tracking of multiple moving objects in a complicated environment become more robust. Under the proposed architecture, detection and tracking cooperate with each other. Based on the result of moving object detection, a dynamic model is adaptively maintained for object tracking. On the other hand, the updated dynamic model is used for both temporal prior propagation of object labels and the update of foreground/background models, which step further to help the detection of moving objects in the next frame. The experiments show that accurate results can be obtained even under situations with camera shaking, foreground/background appearance ambiguity, and object occlusion. |
