Abstract
The multi-object tracking method was proposed in this paper effectively using stereo vision. For the multi-object tracking, we present the method to combine the local gradient patterns (LGP) and the depth information for extracting the feature of region of interest (ROI) by the stereo camera. We used the LGP algorithm to get the feature of ROI, and used the difference of depth information between objects to solve the occlusion problem caused the multi-object tracking. Therefore in this paper, the algorithm suggested that the location and size of detected object using background modeling are assigned automatically. Through this experiment, our proposed method is implemented that it performs more precisely than existing methods.
