【Abstract】 An adaptive object tracking algorithm based on particle filters which could determine the number of the particles according to the object dynamic characteristic was proposed. Particle filters utilize many particles to approximate the posterior probability density function (pdf). However, when the prediction of the object movement is accurate, a few of particles is required to represent the posterior pdf. The proposed algorithm determines the number of particles and proposal density based on the relationship between the numbers of particles required to represent the posterior pdf and accuracy of the movement estimation. The proposed algorithm improves the efficiency of the particles and alleviates the increment of computational complexity caused by using too many particles. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can determine efficiently the number of the required particles under the condition of accurate tracking.更多还原
