Description

A kind of template characteristic selection method for target following
Technical field
The present invention relates to the light stream field analysis of template characteristic point in a kind of Visual Tracking more particularly to target following, Field analysis and probability density distribution analysis are moved, belongs to image procossing and area of pattern recognition.
Background technology
Template tracking is image procossing and the important component of area of pattern recognition, is widely used in intelligent monitoring, In the vision tracking module of the various systems such as human-computer interaction and unmanned platform navigation.Its basic process can be described as:Do not having In the case of having any priori, some object (i.e. template) is selected in the first two field picture with rectangular window, then rear To the object into line trace in continuous video sequence.
At present, researcher has carried out substantial amounts of research to template track algorithm, wherein matched based on template characteristic LK optical flow methods are one of most important technological means.Its techniqueflow is:Feature extraction is carried out to target template first, obtains mould Characteristic point in plate;Then using LK optical flow methods in next two field picture to each characteristic point into line trace, obtain each characteristic point Matching characteristic point is consequently formed matching characteristic point pair;Finally by matching characteristic point between two field pictures (matching characteristic point to) Sports ground acquire geometric transform relation between two field pictures, and finally obtain the position of target and size in the two field picture, Complete a tracking cycle.Constantly repeating above-mentioned tracking cycle can be in the realization target following in entire video sequence.The skill The hypothesis of art means is:Although each characteristic point is tracked separately matching by LK optical flow methods in template, it is used as and is tracked mesh Target is a part of, and all characteristic points follow Movement consistency in template.
However, the shortcomings that existing feature based matched Moulding board method, is:With the continuous progress of tracking cycle, Template is easily drifted about, and ultimately results in target loss.Itself main reason is that, although most of region is traced in template Target is covered, but background pixel is inevitably introduced into, and then pixel in background image and background and objective contour Intersection point also tend to be extracted as characteristic point, and tracked by LK optical flow methods.Therefore, matched spy between the two field pictures obtained There are non-targeted characteristic points pair for the centering of sign point.But these non-targeted characteristic points and a part for target is not belonging to, do not meet fortune Uniformity is moved it is assumed that therefore being interfered to the solution of geometric transformation, the estimation of template size in next frame and position is caused Deviation.With the continuous repetition of tracking cycle, the non-targeted characteristic point in template is constantly introduced into, and template deviation constantly accumulates, And ultimately cause the drift of template.
The content of the invention
For solve the problems, such as in object tracking process due to non-targeted characteristic point is introduced into and caused by template drift, the present invention It is proposed a kind of template characteristic selection method for target following, by the matching characteristic point between two field pictures to formation Optical flow field carry out based on directional spreding probability density analysis, reject template in non-targeted characteristic point, so as to contain target with Template drift during track.
This method concretely comprises the following steps:
Step 1: in calculation template original match characteristic point pair light stream vector
If there is N number of original match characteristic point pair in template, original match characteristic point is tracked according to LK optical flow methods, for n-th+ Characteristic point in 1 two field pictureIt is corresponded to in n-th frame image Characteristic pointIt is each original in (1) calculation template according to the following equation The light stream vector d of matching characteristic point pairi(n|n+1),1≤i≤N:
Wherein, n is image frame number;WithRespectively in n-th frame image InWith the (n+1)th two field picture In+1In it is corresponding Ith feature point,WithRespectively characteristic pointAnd characteristic pointSeat in image coordinate system Mark;
Step 2: the light stream vector using original match point pair in polar coordinate representation template
According to following formula (2)
Obtain the polar coordinate representation (ρ of the light stream vector of each original match characteristic point pairi(n|n+1),θi(n|n+1));Wherein ρi(n | n+1) it is light stream vector diThe length of (n | n+1), θi(n | n+1) it is light stream vector diThe deflection of (n | n+1);
Step 3: carrying out probability density statistics in polar coordinate space interior focusing flow vector, light stream vector is obtained in each area Between probability density, and thus generate angular distribution histogram;The unit width of the angular distribution histogram is Δ θ, highly For Fb(j), wherein:After the polar coordinate space of light stream vector is is divided into J section by Δ θ, the width in each section;Fb(j) light Flow vector is in the probability density in j-th of section, j=1,2 ..., J;
Step 4: carrying out medium filtering to angle distribution histogram, meet the light stream arrow in the section of medium filtering condition The characteristic point of amount is the target feature point tracked, is retained;It is unsatisfactory for the light stream vector in the section of value filtering condition Characteristic point is non-targeted characteristic point, is deleted from template.
Advantageous effect:
According to target feature point Movement consistency it is assumed that being carried out by the optical flow field to original match characteristic point pair in template Directional spreding density analysis rejects original match characteristic point centering non-targeted point (i.e. background characteristics point and background and mesh in template Mark boundary characteristic point), so that the problem of effectively inhibiting template drift in object tracking process, greatly improves target tracking algorism Accuracy.
