Predictive tracking strategies

Looking at some of the videos of autonomous modes, I got to wondering about this.

If you're using the camera to track a target, how are you dealing with loss-of-target? Lemon Squeeze has a fairly simplistic system that just extrapolates based on trajectory and rate of acceleration-deceleration, but I was wondering if anyone has used some other strategy(i.e.rangefinders to relocate a target or markov models or something)
