Online Object Tracking with Proposal Selection
Tracking-by-detection approaches are some of the most successful object
trackers in recent years. Their success is largely determined by the detector
model they learn initially and then update over time. However, under
challenging conditions where an object can undergo transformations, e.g.,
severe rotation, these methods are found to be lacking. In this paper, we
address this problem by formulating it as a proposal selection task and making
two contributions. The first one is introducing novel proposals estimated from
the geometric transformations undergone by the object, and building a rich
candidate set for predicting the object location. The second one is devising a
novel selection strategy using multiple cues, i.e., detection score and
edgeness score computed from state-of-the-art object edges and motion
boundaries. We extensively evaluate our approach on the visual object tracking
2014 challenge and online tracking benchmark datasets, and show the best
performance.Comment: ICCV 201
