1. A computer-implemented method of tracking an object in a scene captured with an image capturing device configured to provide a first frame including a plurality of pixels representative of the scene, the scene including an occlusion which occludes at least a portion of the tracked object as the tracked object travels along an approaching direction (D) associated with the scene, the method comprising: a) locating the occlusion and associated occlusion pixel positions within the first frame including the scene; b) estimating the approaching direction (D) of the tracked object in the scene, relative to the located occlusion; c) identifying a neighboring region along direction (D) located adjacent to the occlusion pixel positions; d) replicating pixels associated with the neighboring region; and e) replacing pixels in a second frame located at the associated occlusion pixel positions with the replicated pixels, wherein all or part of the tracked object is occluded by the occlusion in the second frame.
