Abstract

A method of tracking an object includes performing a hybrid search over a sequence of frames. The hybrid search includes periodically performing a global search on selected frames of the sequence of frames and performing a local search on frames between the selected frames of the global search. The method also includes updating a similarity function based on a result of the hybrid search. The method further includes tracking the object based on the hybrid search.
