Abstract

We propose a novel approach to executing exhaustive histogram search, which incorporates a process to rotate the template used in a computationally efficient manner, e.g. for tracking applications where object rotation will require template rotation. The method is particularly applicable to rectangular templates as any rotation in the region of interest will greatly reduce the potential for a satisfactory match. We present a computational analysis of our proposed method, followed by comparative experimental results.
