Abstract :
Three different statistical models of colour data for use in segmentation or tracking algorithms are proposed. The results of a performance comparison of a tracking algorithm, applied to two separate applications, using each of the three different types of underlying model of the data are presented. From these a comparison of the performance of the statistical colour models themselves is obtained
