This paper presents a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) based particle filter to track multiple persons dedicated to video surveillance applications. This hybrid tracker, devoted to networked intelligent cameras, takes benefit from the best properties of both MCMC and joint particle filter. A saliency map-based proposal distribution is shown to limit the well-known burst in terms of particles and MCMC iterations. Qualitative and quantitative results for real-world video data are presented.
