PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an object tracking apparatus and method thereof capable of reliably detecting and tracking a moving object from the beginning of the detection. ! SOLUTION: The object tracking apparatus and the method thereof includes the steps of: detecting faces included in images continuously taken by a camera; setting a reliability degree with respect to the face detected in each image; classifying the reliability degree into plural segments of reliability degree at predetermined intervals; linking detected objects which continue within an identical segment of reliability degree as a tracking object in an order of higher reliability degree; and performing interpolation processing to link the identical detection objects included in the other segments of reliability degree, to thereby determine the tracking. Thus, the moving object can be tracked without changing the threshold value for detecting. ! COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT |
