This paper proposes a preprocessing method for tracking aircraft's take-off and lading. The method uses accumulative difference image technique for segmenting the object from the background, and obtains the centroid of the object exactly using centroid method. Then the moving object is analyzed and represented with the information such as feature point, velocity, and distance. A simulation result reveals that the proposed algorithm has good performance in segmenting and tracking the aircraft.

This paper proposed a preprocessing algorithm which is named Automatic Tracking Window (ATW), which eliminates the effects of noises at spatial signals and spurious peaks at high-resolution algorithm in bearing estimation algorithm. This method estimates spatial spectrum by periodogram algorisdthm and hihg-resolution algorithm after preprocessing of spatial signal by automatically tracked window.

In this paper, the Automatic Tracking Window(ATW) algorithm is applied to the Generalized Cross-Correlation(GCC) time delay estimation algorithm as a preprocessing. The Linear Prediction(LP) algorithm, which is a pararmetric spectral estimation algorithm, is applied to the time delay estimation. And the ATW, a preprocessing algorithm is applied to this algorithm too. This paper shows that the ATW algorithm attenuates the sidelobes very much and improves the resolution of the timedelay estimation.

Preprocessing technique of the measurement bearing data is presented to improve the tar-get estimation accuracy for the bearing-only target notion analysis (TMA). Computer simulation is performed to compare with respect to the extended Kalman filter. By computer simulation, the target filter estimator with preprocessing Is both stable and robust to the measurement bearing noise.

This paper proposes an efficient preprocessing technique for a binary centroid tracker in correlated image sequences. It is known that the following factors determine the performance of the binary centroid target tracker: (1) an efficient real-time preprocessing technique, (2) an exact target segmentation from cluttered background images and (3) an intelligent tracking window sizing, and etc. The proposed centroid tracker consists of an adaptive segmentation method based on novel distance features and an efficient real-time preprocessing technique in order to enhance the distinction between the objects of interest and their local background. Various tracking experiments using synthetic images as well as real Forward-Looking InfraRed (FLIR) images are performed to show the usefulness of the proposed methods.

This paper describes the track initiation and target-tracking filter for ship tracking in a marine environment by using Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR). LiDAR with three-dimensional scanning capability is more useful for target tracking in the short to medium range compared to RADAR. LiDAR has rotating multi-beams that return point clouds reflected from targets. Through preprocessing the cluster of the point cloud, the center point can be obtained from the cloud. Target tracking is carried out by using the center points of targets. The track of the target is initiated by investigating the normalized distance between the center points and connecting the points. The regular track obtained from the track initiation can be maintained by the target-tracking filter, which is commonly used in radar target tracking. The target-tracking filter is constructed to track a maneuvering target in a cluttered environment. The target-tracking algorithm including track initiation is experimentally evaluated in a sea-trial test with several boats.

This paper describes a system fur tracking multiple faces in an input video sequence using facial convex hull based facial segmentation and robust hausdorff distance. The algorithm adapts skin color reference map in YCbCr color space and hair color reference map in RGB color space for classifying face region. Then, we obtain an initial face model with preprocessing and convex hull. For tracking, this algorithm computes displacement of the point set between frames using a robust hausdorff distance and the best possible displacement is selected. Finally, the initial face model is updated using the displacement. We provide an example to illustrate the proposed tracking algorithm, which efficiently tracks rotating and zooming faces as well as existing multiple faces in video sequences obtained from CCD camera.

This paper describes a system for tracking a face in a input video sequence using facial convex hull based facial segmentation and a robust hausdorff distance. The algorithm adapts YCbCr color model for classifying face region by [l]. Then, we obtain an initial face model with preprocessing and convex hull. For tracking, a Robust Hausdorff distance is computed and the best possible displacement is selected. Finally, the previous face model is updated using the displacement t. It is robust to some noises and outliers. We provide an example to illustrate the proposed tracking algorithm in video sequences obtained from CCD camera.

The study on computer vision is aimed on creating a system to substitute the ability of human visual sensor. Especially, moving object tracking system is becoming an important area of study. In this study, we have proposed the tracking system of single moving object based on motion estimation. The tracking system performed motion estimation using differential image, and then tracked the moving object by controlling Pan/Tilt device of camera. Proposed tracking system is devided into image acquisition and preprocessing phase, motion estimation phase and object tracking phase. As a result of experiment, motion of moving object can be estimated. The result of tracking, object was not lost and tracked correctly.
