Tracking of multiple semantic video objects for Internet applications
Chuang Gu, Ming-Chieh Lee · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 1998
This paper introduces a novel tracking system for generic semantic video objects using backward region-based classification. It consists of five elementary steps: region pre-processing, region extraction, region-based motion estimation, region classification and region post-processing. Region pre-processing simplifies the input data. Region extraction finds the basic elements for classification. Region-based motion estimation provides the trajectory information about each basic element. Region classification determines the interior/exterior parts of semantic video objects. Finally, region post-processing cleans the results. We will show solid performance of this generic tracking system with pixel-wise accuracy for Internet applications.
