title: Integrating color and shape-texture features for adaptive real-time object tracking.
abstract: We extend the standard mean-shift tracking algorithm to an adaptive tracker by selecting reliable features from color and shape-texture cues according to their descriptive ability. The target model is updated according to the similarity between the initial and current models, and this makes the tracker more robust. The proposed algorithm has been compared with other trackers using challenging image sequences, and it provides better performance.
