Summary:
In recent years, behavior observation for moving objects such as cell, bacteria and insect is important to understanding the ecology of biological characteristics and habits in the medical filed. In this paper, we propose new technique to construct method of image tracking for the creature observation under the various environments. However, since the brightness change occurs by influence of illumination change or irregular moving of tracking target, we propose new tracking method to have applied the orientation code matching with multi-templates method which is a robust method to the influence of the illumination change. Further, in order to solve problem which comes from irregular moving of the tracking target, we estimate the position of tracking target with high accuracy based on the particle filter. Finally, through experiments, we show effectiveness of our method.
