ABSTRACT This paper presents a new kernel-based algorithm for video object tracking called rebound of region of interest (RROI). The novel algorithm uses a rectangle-shaped section as region of interest (ROI) to represent and track specific objects in videos. The proposed algorithm is constituted by two stages. The first stage seeks to determine the direction of the object’s motion by analyzing the changing regions around the object being tracked between two consecutive frames. Once ...
