Abstract :
In this paper, the accuracy assessment of the recently proposed Maximum Likelihood (ML) texture tracking algorithm is discussed. Its comparison with the well known texture tracking technique, i.e., Normalized Incoherent Cross Correlation (NICC), has also been investigated in the case of the presence of multiplicative noise structure.
