Popis: Tracking extended objects like humans in crowded environments is one of the challenges in mobile robotics. Several characteristics must be taken into consideration when evaluating the performance of such a tracking algorithm — e. g. accuracy, the need for computation time and the ability to deal with complex situations like crossing targets. In this paper two different algorithms for tracking extended targets, especially people, are examined and compared by means of these criterias. One result is that none of the algorithms alone is a sufficient solution to the criterias. Therefore, a switching approach using both algorithms is introduced.
