Abstract

Over the last decade the object tracking has become an important area for researcher. It took its major part in real time applications such as the video surveillance and monitoring, perpetual user interfaces, smart rooms and video compression. The efficient tracking of visual features in complex environments is a challenging task for the vision community. Object tracking includes single object tracking and multi object tracking based on the color, deformable template models, and active contours. In this study, the implementation of active contours for object tracking on complex environment is discussed with issues such as irregular illumination and the frame-to-frame deviations of the object.
