Abstract
A method and system for tracking moving objects in a sequence of images. In one illustrative embodiment, a current image in the sequence of images is segmented into a plurality of segments. Segments in the plurality of segments belonging to a same motion profile are fused together to form a set of master segments. A set of target segments is identified from the set of master segments. The set of target segments represent a set of moving objects in the current image. A set of fingerprints is created for use in tracking the set of moving objects in a number of subsequent images in the sequence of images.
