Gaussian process annealing particle filter is proposed for tracking in order to reduce the dimensionality of the problem and to increase the tracker s stability and robustness. Comparing with a regular annealed particle filter-based tracker we show that our algorithm can track better for low frame rate videos. We also show that our algorithm is capable of recovering after a temporal target loss. Copyright 2008 Leonid Raskin et al.

INTRODUCTION Human body pose estimation and tracking is a challenging task for several reasons. First the large dimensionality of the human 3D model complicates the examination of the entire subject and makes it harder to detect each body part separately. Secondly the significantly different appearance of different people that stems from various clothing styles and illumination variations adds to the already great variety of images of different individuals. Finally the most challenging difficulty that has to be solved in order to achieve satisfactory results of pose understanding is the ambiguity caused bybody. This paper presents an approach to 3D articulated human
