Abstract :
We introduce a two-stage matching algorithm based on target feature, in which coarse searching and accurate location are combined to avoid so much calculation as in correlation tracking. According to the image feature of TV tracking system, we present an adaptive template modification strategy, which in some degree overcomes the influences on tracking result by distortion, noise and shelter and so on of the actual image. Meanwhile, simulation results show good effect.
