Abstract	This paper presents an efficient and robust tracking algorithm based on multiple cues fusion in the Bayesian framework. This method characterizes the object to be tracked using a MOG (mixture of Gaussians) based appearance model and a chamfer-matching based shape model. A selective updating technique for the models is employed to accommodate for appearance and illumination changes. Meantime, the mean shift algorithm is embedded as the prior information into the Bayesian framework to give a heuristic prediction in the hypotheses generation process, which also alleviates the great computational load suffered by the conventional Bayesian tracker. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared with some existing works, the proposed algorithm has a better adaptability to changes of the object as well as the environments.
