Tracking of Military Objects in a Videosignal

First part of this thesis briefly describes the main problems of object tracking in video and methods to deal with them. Main attention is paid towards usage of these methods for target tracking in videos taken by both normal and thermal camera. It propose solution to this problem based on the kernel-based method which uses mean-shift algorhitm and on the template matching. Both tracking methods results are supervised and corrected by Kalman filter. Proposed solution is implemented using C++ with OpenCV library
