Multiperson Tracking by Online Learned Grouping Model With Nonlinear Motion Context
Online Domain Adaptation for Multi-Object Tracking
Automatically detecting, labeling, and tracking objects in videos depends
first and foremost on accurate category-level object detectors. These might,
however, not always be available in practice, as acquiring high-quality large
scale labeled training datasets is either too costly or impractical for all
possible real-world application scenarios. A scalable solution consists in
re-using object detectors pre-trained on generic datasets. This work is the
first to investigate the problem of on-line domain adaptation of object
detectors for causal multi-object tracking (MOT). We propose to alleviate the
dataset bias by adapting detectors from category to instances, and back: (i) we
jointly learn all target models by adapting them from the pre-trained one, and
(ii) we also adapt the pre-trained model on-line. We introduce an on-line
multi-task learning algorithm to efficiently share parameters and reduce drift,
while gradually improving recall. Our approach is applicable to any linear
object detector, and we evaluate both cheap "mini-Fisher Vectors" and expensive
"off-the-shelf" ConvNet features. We quantitatively measure the benefit of our
domain adaptation strategy on the KITTI tracking benchmark and on a new dataset
(PASCAL-to-KITTI) we introduce to study the domain mismatch problem in MOT.Comment: To appear at BMVC 201
Globally Optimal Cell Tracking using Integer Programming
We propose a novel approach to automatically tracking cell populations in
time-lapse images. To account for cell occlusions and overlaps, we introduce a
robust method that generates an over-complete set of competing detection
hypotheses. We then perform detection and tracking simultaneously on these
hypotheses by solving to optimality an integer program with only one type of
flow variables. This eliminates the need for heuristics to handle missed
detections due to occlusions and complex morphology. We demonstrate the
effectiveness of our approach on a range of challenging sequences consisting of
clumped cells and show that it outperforms state-of-the-art techniques.Comment: Engin T\"uretken and Xinchao Wang contributed equally to this wor
