Abstract
Position estimation is one of the most important functions for the mobile robot navigating in Robotic Space. In order to achieve these goals, we present a method for representing, tracking and human following by fusing distributed multiple vision systems in Robotic Space, with application to pedestrian tracking in a crowd. And the article presents the integration of color distributions into SOM(Self Organizing Map) based particle filtering. Particle filters provide a robust tracking framework under ambiguity conditions. We propose to track the moving objects by generating hypotheses not in the image plan but on the top-view reconstruction of the scene. Comparative results on real video sequences show the advantage of our method for multi-motion tracking. Simulations are carried out to evaluate the proposed performance. Also, the method is applied to the intelligent environment and its performance is verified by the experiments.
