Abstract
Conference Title: 2016 5th International Conference on Multimedia Computing and Systems (ICMCS) Conference Start Date: 2016, Sept. 29 Conference End Date: 2016, Oct. 1 Conference Location: Marrakech, Morocco The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of existing active contours-based object tracking methods. This restriction to recent active contours-based approaches is voluntary for two main reasons. Firstly, developed active contours models are heterogeneous that we can divide them into several sub-categories which are designed with different information and secondly, an exhaustive review of all object tracking techniques is not possible in a single article.
