Abstract

Tracking moving objects in video can be carried out by correlating a template containing object pixels of the current frame. This approach may produce erronous results under noise. We determine a set of significant pixels on the object by analyzing the wavelet transform of the template and correlate only these pixels with the current frame to determine the position of the object. These significant pixels are easily trackable features of the image and incrase the performance of the tracker.
