Abstract :
Our goal is to establish a simple technique for dynamic human body tracking based on image sequence. In this paper, we present a novel method of template matching and predictive tracking for moving body in clutter background. The method exploits the fact that moving human body changed in approximate rigid parts. First, we use the moving difference to find the region of interest, then we make a template of a target through the morphology algorithm using the skeleton of the object, and by revising the mask combined Kalman predictive tracking method to archive real-time tracking. It has been proved that in clutter background and noisy situation this algorithm is still efficient.
