The particle filter algorithm has been widely used in the moving target tracking.In the particle filter,the resampling is an important way to solve the particle degeneration,but the resampling can lead to the loss of the particles’ diversity.To solve this problem,the guided particle filter tracking algorithm is proposed.The guided filtering is a new filtering method.Compared with the traditional filtering methods,the guided filtering will introduce a guided picture when filtering the image.Based on this idea,the guided particle filter will introduce a guided particle as a guide to remain some informations of target images when filtering the image.The experiment proves that this algorithm can locate and track the target better.
