Alex Leontiev 1940c120ac More abstract tracker declaration
This contribution changes the way how trackers should be implemented by
programmer. It should be noted first, that from the user prospective,
Tracker::create() method still can be called with the same effect.
However, there's no more thing as a "constructor" for Tracker, they
should be created via static functions, e.g.
    static Ptr<TrackerMIL> createTracker(const TrackerMIL::Params &parameters=TrackerMIL::Params());

From the programmer's perspective now for every tracker what is declared
in tracker.hpp header is more a "interface", while the real
implementation class can (and has to) be implemented in .cpp file.

Changes in documentation are also included.

Tracker Algorithms
==================
.. highlight:: cpp
The following algorithms are implemented at the moment.
.. [MIL] B Babenko, M-H Yang, and S Belongie, Visual Tracking with Online Multiple Instance Learning, In CVPR, 2009
.. [OLB] H Grabner, M Grabner, and H Bischof, Real-time tracking via on-line boosting, In Proc. BMVC, volume 1, pages 47 56, 2006
TrackerBoosting
---------------
This is a real-time object tracking based on a novel on-line version of the AdaBoost algorithm.
The classifier uses the surrounding background as negative examples in update step to avoid the drifting problem. The implementation is based on
[OLB]_.
.. ocv:class:: TrackerBoosting
Implementation of TrackerBoosting from :ocv:class:`Tracker`::
class CV_EXPORTS_W TrackerBoosting : public Tracker
{
public:
void read( const FileNode& fn );
void write( FileStorage& fs ) const;
static Ptr<trackerBoosting> createTracker(const trackerBoosting::Params &parameters=trackerBoosting::Params());
virtual ~trackerBoosting(){};
protected:
bool initImpl( const Mat& image, const Rect2d& boundingBox );
bool updateImpl( const Mat& image, Rect2d& boundingBox );
};
TrackerBoosting::Params
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
.. ocv:struct:: TrackerBoosting::Params
List of BOOSTING parameters::
struct CV_EXPORTS Params
{
Params();
int numClassifiers; //the number of classifiers to use in a OnlineBoosting algorithm
float samplerOverlap; //search region parameters to use in a OnlineBoosting algorithm
float samplerSearchFactor; // search region parameters to use in a OnlineBoosting algorithm
int iterationInit; //the initial iterations
int featureSetNumFeatures; // #features
void read( const FileNode& fn );
void write( FileStorage& fs ) const;
};
TrackerBoosting::createTracker
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Constructor
.. ocv:function:: Ptr<trackerBoosting> TrackerBoosting::createTracker(const trackerBoosting::Params &parameters=trackerBoosting::Params())
:param parameters: BOOSTING parameters :ocv:struct:`TrackerBoosting::Params`
TrackerMIL
----------
The MIL algorithm trains a classifier in an online manner to separate the object from the background. Multiple Instance Learning avoids the drift problem for a robust tracking. The implementation is based on [MIL]_.
