• 摘要: 目前使用颜色属性特征表征目标的几种主流算法中,均使用主成分分析法(PCA)处理颜色属性特征,而PCA方法假设输入数据中存在的噪声必须服从高斯分布,该方法存在明显不足。针对这一问题,本文根据鲁棒主成分分析法(Robust PCA)对颜色属性特征进行处理。将输入图像从原始RGB颜色空间映射至颜色属性空间,得到11种不同的颜色属性层;之后,基于Robust PCA处理颜色属性特征,使得映射后的图片信息都集中在少数层上,在保留原始图片大量信息的前提下滤除噪声。本文将使用Robust PCA处理后的颜色属性特征用于原始CN算法框架中并设置不同的降维层数对比其带来的算法性能差异。在OTB100中,与原始CN框架相比,算法成功率提升1.0%,精度提升0.9%。经实验数据证明,通过Robust PCA处理后的颜色属性特征具有更强的鲁棒性,可以更好地发挥出其优势并提升算法性能。

       

      Abstract: At present, several mainstream algorithms using color name (CN) all adopt principal component analysis (PCA) to process the feature. However, PCA assumes that the noise of input data must obey Gaussian distribution, which is a conspicuous defect. Aim to address this problem, in this paper, we take robust principal component analysis (Robust PCA) to process CN features. The method projects the original RGB color space to a robust color space–CN space, which means that the input image is stratified to 11 layers according to color name. Then, it processes the CN features by the Robust PCA, so that the mapped image information is concentrated on a few layers, retaining a great quantity of image information and filting out noise. The processed feature is used for Color-tracking frame at the standard benchmark OTB100, and we set up different layers to compare the performance differences of the algorithm. The experimental results show that the success rate increases by 1.0% and the accuracy increases by 0.9% at OTB100. The result illustrates that the Robust PCA method can better bring color name feature superiority into full play and improve the performance of the algorithm effectively.
