Title
Tracking Many Objects Using Subordinated Condensation
Abstract
We describe a novel extension to the CONDENSATION algorithm for track- ing multiple objects of the same type. Previous extensions for multiple object tracking do not scale effectively to large numbers of objects. The new ap- proach - subordinated CONDENSATION - deals effectively with arbitrary numbers of objects in an efficient manner, providing a robust means of track- ing individual objects across heavily populated and cluttered scenes. The key innovation is the introduction of bindings (subordination) amongst particles which enables multiple occlusions to be handled in a natural way within the standard CONDENSATION framework. The effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated by tracking multiple animals of the same species in cluttered wildlife footage.
