Abstract In the field of image processing and machine vision, object tracking is a significant and rapidly developing subfield. The numerous potential applications of object tracking have garnered much attention in recent years. The effectiveness of tracking and detecting moving targets is directly related to the quality of motion detection algorithms. This paper presents a new method for estimating the tracking of objects by linearizing their trajectories. Estimating the movement paths of objects in dynamic and complex environments is one of the fundamental challenges in various fields, such as surveillance systems, autonomous navigation, and robotics. Existing methods, such as the Kalman filter and particle filter, each have their strengths and weaknesses. The Kalman filter is suitable for linear systems but less efficient in nonlinear systems, while the particle filter can better handle system nonlinearity but requires more computations. The main goal of this research is to improve the accuracy and efficiency of estimating the movement paths of objects by combining path linearization techniques with existing advanced methods. In this method, the nonlinear model of the object's path is first transformed into a simpler linear model using linearization techniques. The Kalman filter is then used to estimate the states of the linearized system. This approach simplifies the calculations while increasing the estimation accuracy. In the subsequent step, a particle filter-based method is employed to manage noise and sudden changes in the object's trajectory. This combination of two different methods allows leveraging the advantages of both, resulting in a more accurate and robust estimate. Experimental results show that the proposed method performs better than traditional methods, achieving higher accuracy in various conditions, including those with high noise and sudden changes in the movement path. Specifically, the proposed approach improves movement forecasting accuracy by about 12% compared to existing methods. In conclusion, this research demonstrates that object trajectory linearization can be an effective tool for improving object tracking estimation. Combining this technique with existing advanced methods can enhance the accuracy and efficiency of tracking systems. Consequently, the results of this research can be applied to the development of advanced surveillance systems, self-driving cars, and other applications. |
