SynonymsIntergral images for fast covariance computationDefinitionTracking in videos consists in following the successive locations of a given object region. We present an application of a covariance-based feature used as robust image descriptors and related algorithms for object tracking in video.IntroductionThe goal of the detection drudgery is to identify the presence and possibly the location of a given object in a video sequence, whereas the goal of the tracking task is to estimate the successive positions of an object or region using discriminating features through video frames. Tuzel et al. [1] proposed to use the covariance of several image statistics computed inside a region of interest, as the region descriptor. They used integral images for fast covariance computation. Integral images are intermediate image representations used for the fast calculation of region sums [2]. We investigate this covariance-based descriptor for tracking objects in a ...
