Abstract
In this paper an efficient method for tracking a moving object in a video scene is described. Many algorithms for tracking of moving object using real wavelet transform have been developed. This method uses dual tree complex wavelet transform for tracking of the object. One of the most critical tasks in object tracking is the identification of moving object in the scene. For this purpose optical flow based segmentation method is used. This method is very simple and intelligent enough for determining the moving area in the scenes. Dual tree complex wavelet transform is used here for tracking because there is problem of shift variance and directional selectivity in real wavelet transform. In proposed method only complex wavelet coefficients are used for tracking of the object no other parameter is needed. Also Dual tree complex wavelet transform do not suffer from shift variance and directional selectivity.
Keywords
