Abstract:
Tracking using sensor data is described, for example, where a plurality of machine learning predictors are used to predict a plurality of complementary, or diverse, parameter values of a process describing how the sensor data arises. In various examples a selector selects which of the predicted values are to be used, for example, to control a computing device. In some examples the tracked parameter values are pose of a moving camera or pose of an object moving in the field of view of a static camera; in some examples the tracked parameter values are of a 3D model of a hand or other articulated or deformable entity. The machine learning predictors have been trained in series, with training examples being reweighted after training an individual predictor, to favor training examples on which the set of predictors already trained performs poorly.
