Simplified Explanation

This invention is about an object tracing apparatus that can track and trace objects in a video. It uses a tracking unit to track the object in each frame of the video and obtain track data that shows the consecutive appearances of the object. The apparatus also has a tracing unit that generates trace information, which indicates which object ID each track ID belongs to. The tracing unit does this by associating the track ID obtained through tracking with an object ID that uniquely identifies the object.

In cases where there are one or more existing object IDs associated with a track ID and there is target track data without an associated object ID, the tracing unit determines which object ID the target track data belongs to based on the possibility of coexistence in imaging time.


Original Abstract Submitted

This invention provides an object tracing apparatus that traces an object in a video obtained by an image capturing apparatus, comprising a tracking unit that tracks the object in a frame in the video and obtains track data indicating consecutive appearances of the object, and a tracing unit that generates trace information indicating which object ID each track ID belongs to, by associating a track ID obtained via tracking by the tracking unit with an object ID for uniquely identifying an object, wherein the tracing unit, on a basis of a coexistence possibility relating to imaging time between a track ID associated with one or more existing object IDs and target track data without an associated object ID, determines which object ID the target track data belongs to.
