Abstract
In this work an algorithm of the tracking of the set of moving objects is described. The important features of the task are crossings of the object trajectories and temporary screening of the objects by other objects. The source data for the proposed algorithm is a list of the parameters of the binary regions extracted from each image of the sequence. The main idea of the considered algorithm is to build a bipartite graph. The recoursive procedure is used to partition the graph into connected graphs corresponding to five situations: detection of a new object, missing object, merging of the objects into one region, division of the region and "simple" object tracking. These graphs are used to form a new list of the objects. The experimental research of the algorithm shows a good tracking performance in both ground and aerial environments.
