Machine Learning-Based Multitarget Tracking of Motion in Sports Video

Table 1

Comparison of the analysis of three tracking methods.

Tracking methodAdvantageDisadvantage

Point trackingSuitable for translational movements with small targetsWhen the target shape is obscured, point tracking
Nuclear trackingWhen the target contour is a geometric rigid body, the effect is betterInability to effectively track a small number of feature points’ illumination and target morphology changes have high sensitivity
Silhouette trackingIt has a significant effect on tracking nonrigid bodies with complex shapesHigh requirements for target model establishment
