Abstract :
An object tracking algorithm in region-space is proposed for sports applications. The region adjacency graphs are used to perform a search for the given object description. It is proposed to overcome any inter-frame inconsistencies in region-space by using the textual description of the object and the concept of picture tree traversal.
