Abstract :
When the human target is tracked by Mean shift algorithm, it is easily lost if human target moves too fast. In this paper, Human skin color model is introduced into the mean shift algorithm. This method combines the location information of skin color, in order to achieve real-time tracking of rapid movement of the human body.
