Abstract
Automatic tracking of sport players in soccer video sequences is very important for
analyzing soccer games especially when interactive digital TV spreads to the consumer
level. This problem has gained interest among researchers in the past few years. Several
solutions have been suggested but still no complete solution was offered, which can track
players in scenarios where occlusion occurs. A different tracking solution is proposed in
this paper, which increases the probability to automatically track players in games with
occlusion.
This problem is challenging because players may have similar features (for example,
