 Image Number 2 for United States Patent #7873185.
A method for detecting and tracking a deformable object having a sequentially changing behavior, comprising: developing a temporal statistical shape model of the oscillatory behavior of the embedding function representing the object from prior motion; and then applying the model against future, sequential motion of the object in the presence of unwanted phenomena by maximizing the probability that the developed statistical shape model matches the sequential motion of the object in the presence of unwanted phenomena.
