Exploiting superpixel and hybrid hash for kernel-based visual tracking

作者:

Highlights:

• Superpixel analysis approach is employed to reconstruct target appearance in visual tracking.

• Representative superpixel blocks combined with kernel-based filter are exploited for roughly target location.

• Superpixel block modification method based on hybrid hash is proposed to accurately locate target.

• Conventional kernel-based filter is improved with peak-response scale estimation and color features.

• Comprehensive experiments on publicly available datasets demonstrate our tracker superior to state-of-the-art trackers.
