In object detection, the first step is to identify objects in the video sequence and cluster pixels of these ob- jects. Classification of an object is the next important step to track the object. The object tracking can be applied in most of the fields that include computerized video surveil- lance, traffic monitoring, robotic vision, gesture identifica- tion, human-computer interaction, military surveillance sys- tem, vehicle navigation, medical imaging, biomedical image analysis and many more. The purpose of this work is to represent the various steps involved in tracking objects in 1 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Volume 118 No. 16 2018, 511-526 ISSN: 1311-8080 (printed version); ISSN: 1314-3395 (on-line version) url: http://www.ijpam.eu Special Issue ijpam.eu 511
