Optimization methods based on iterative schemes can be divided into two classes: linesearch methods and trust-region methods. While linesearch techniques are commonly found in various vision applications, not much attention is paid to trust-region methods. Motivated by the fact that linesearch methods can be considered as special cases of trust-region methods, we propose to apply trust-region methods to visual tracking problems. Our approach integrates trust-region methods with the Kullback Leibler distance to track a rigid or non-rigid object in real-time. If not limited by the speed of a camera, the algorithm can achieve frame rate above 60 fps. To justify our method, a variety of experiments/comparisons are carried out for the trust-region tracker and a linesearch-based mean-shift tracker with same initial conditions. The experimental results support our conjecture that a trust-region tracker should perform superiorly to a linesearch one.
