TRACKING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REGIONS OF INTEREST AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT THEREOF

In one exemplary embodiment, a tracking system for region-of-interest (ROI) performs a feature-point detection locally on an ROI of an image frame at an initial time via a feature point detecting and tracking module, and tracks the detected features. A linear transformation module finds out a transform relationship between two ROIs of two consecutive image frames, by using a plurality of corresponding feature points. An estimation and update module predicts and corrects a moving location for the ROI at a current time. Based on the result corrected by the estimation and update module, an outlier rejection module removes at least an outlier outside the ROI.
