Kalman filter is successfully used to predict the object position under occlusion in this paper. Firstly, according to the target location in the previous frame, Kalman filter predicts target location in the current frame adaptively.Secondly, find the real target location in the neighborhood by mean shift algorithm. Finally, update the filter parameters. Because the adaptive Kalman filter predicts target location through system equation, it can improve the tracking effect in occlusion in a certain degree.

The classical mean shift (MS) algorithm is the best color-based method for object tracking. However, in the real environment it presents some limitations, especially under the presence of noise, objects with partial and full occlusions in complex environments. In order to deal with these problems, this paper proposes a reliable object tracking algorithm using corrected background-weighted histogram (CBWH) and the Kalman filter (KF) based on the MS method. The experimental results show that the proposed method is superior to the traditional MS tracking in the following aspects: 1) it provides consistent object tracking throughout the video; 2) it is not influenced by the objects with partial and full occlusions; 3) it is less prone to the background clutter.
