作者:

Highlights:

• A new tracking method combining a mean shift tracker with an online learning-based detector and a Kalman filter.

• A Mahalanobis distance-based validation region for reduction of calculation time.

• Target model update scheme for long-term tracking.

• Experiments on eight challenging video sequences to compare against state-of-the-art methods.

• Demonstration of superiority in term of accuracy and speed.
