The goal of this article is to review the state-ofthe-art object tracking techniques developed using mean shift approach and identify the domain in which it can be improved upon. Object tracking, in general, is a challenging problem, which can be achieved in many ways. Of the various possible directions, mean shift is most popular because of its simplicity and applicability to many states of affairs. The tracking algorithm developed upon the mean shift platform can be investigated in either of the two focal points; firstly, for accurate object centroid detection and secondly, for scale adaptation. Present paper tries to investigate the approaches reported in both the domains and identifies the improvement areas in respective field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
