Title
Real-Time Camera Tracking Using a Particle Filter
Abstract
We describe a particle filtering method for vision based tracking of a hand held calibrated camera in real-time. The ability of the particle filter to deal with non-linearities and non-Gaussian statistics suggests the potential to pro- vide improved robustness over existing approaches, such as those based on the Kalman filter. In our approach, the particle filter provides recursive ap- proximations to the posterior density for the 3-D motion parameters. The measurements are inlier/outlier counts of likely correspondence matches for a set of salient points in the scene. The algorithm is simple to implement and we present results illustrating good tracking performance using a 'live' cam- era. We also demonstrate the potential robustness of the method, including the ability to recover from loss of track and to deal with severe occlusion.
