    Abstract

    Reliably tracking key points and textured patches from frame to frame is the basic requirement for many bottom- up computer vision algorithms. The problem of selecting the features that can be tracked well is addressed here. The Lucas- Kcsnade tracking procedure is commonly used. We propose a method so estimate she size of the tracking procedure convergence region for each feature. The features that have a wider convergence region around them should be tracked better by the tracker The size of the convergence region as a new feature goodness measure is compared with the widely accepted She-Tomasi feature selection criteria.
