Abstract

Now a days, the infertility is a big problem for human being, especially for men. The mobility of the sperm does not depend on the number of sperm present in the semen. To avoid infertility, the detection rate of the multi moving sperms is to measured. There are different algorithms are utilized for detection of sperms in the human semen, but their detection rate is not up to the mark. This article proposed a method to track and detect the human sperm with high detection rate as compared to existing approaches. The sperm candidates are tracked using Kalman filters and proposed algorithms.
