This paper analyzes the multi-target tracking of sperm by using the improved nearest neighbor data association tracking method which predicts the position where the sperm may appear in the next frame by computing the interframe-distance and direction of the sperm. Also, in order to dealing with the situation of tracking lose and many-to-one tracking, we proposed two processing methods for sperm re-tracking of tracking lost compensation and tracking forecast minimum-range. The experiment shows this algorithm has better tracking accuracy and higher efficiency.

The traditional centroid tracking method over-relies on the accuracy of segment, which easily lead to loss of underwater moving target. This paper presents an object tracking method based on circular contour extraction, combining region feature and contour feature. Through the correction to circle features, the problem of multiple solutions causing by Hough transform circle detection is avoided. A new motion prediction model is constructed to make up the deficiency that three-order motion prediction model has disadvantage of high dimension and large calculation. The predicted position of object centroid is updated and corrected by circle contour, forming prediction-measurement-updating closed-loop target tracking system. To reduce system processing time, on the premise of the tracking accuracy, a dynamic detection method based on target state prediction model is proposed. The results of contour extraction and underwater moving target experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Target tracking in public traffic calls for a tracking system with automated track initiation and termination facilities in a randomly evolving driving environment. In addition, the key problem of data association needs to be handled effectively considering the limitations in the computational resources onboard an autonomous car. In this paper, we discuss a multi-target tracking system that addresses target birth/initiation and death/termination processes with automatic track management feature. The tracking system is based on Linear Multi-target Integrated Probabilistic Data Association Filter (LMIPDAF), which is adapted to specifically include algorithms that handle track initiation and termination, clutter density estimation and track management. The performance of the proposed tracking algorithm is compared to other single and multi-target tracking schemes and is shown to have acceptable tracking error. It is further illustrated through multiple traffic simulations that the computational requirement of the tracking algorithm is less than that of optimal multi-target tracking algorithms that explicitly address data association uncertainties.
