Abstract
A method of tracking a position of a target object in a video sequence includes identifying the target object in a reference frame. A generic mapping is applied to the target object being tracked. The generic mapping is generated by learning possible appearance variations of a generic object. The method also includes tracking the position of the target object in subsequent frames of the video sequence by determining whether an output of the generic mapping of the target object matches an output of the generic mapping of a candidate object.
