Real-time Multiple People Tracking with Deeply Learned Candidate Selection and Person Re-Identification
Online multi-object tracking is a fundamental problem in time-critical video
analysis applications. A major challenge in the popular tracking-by-detection
framework is how to associate unreliable detection results with existing
tracks. In this paper, we propose to handle unreliable detection by collecting
candidates from outputs of both detection and tracking. The intuition behind
generating redundant candidates is that detection and tracks can complement
each other in different scenarios. Detection results of high confidence prevent
tracking drifts in the long term, and predictions of tracks can handle noisy
detection caused by occlusion. In order to apply optimal selection from a
considerable amount of candidates in real-time, we present a novel scoring
function based on a fully convolutional neural network, that shares most
computations on the entire image. Moreover, we adopt a deeply learned
appearance representation, which is trained on large-scale person
re-identification datasets, to improve the identification ability of our
tracker. Extensive experiments show that our tracker achieves real-time and
state-of-the-art performance on a widely used people tracking benchmark.Comment: ICME 201
The Evolution of First Person Vision Methods: A Survey
The emergence of new wearable technologies such as action cameras and
smart-glasses has increased the interest of computer vision scientists in the
First Person perspective. Nowadays, this field is attracting attention and
investments of companies aiming to develop commercial devices with First Person
Vision recording capabilities. Due to this interest, an increasing demand of
methods to process these videos, possibly in real-time, is expected. Current
approaches present a particular combinations of different image features and
quantitative methods to accomplish specific objectives like object detection,
activity recognition, user machine interaction and so on. This paper summarizes
the evolution of the state of the art in First Person Vision video analysis
between 1997 and 2014, highlighting, among others, most commonly used features,
methods, challenges and opportunities within the field.Comment: First Person Vision, Egocentric Vision, Wearable Devices, Smart

Human Motion Trajectory Prediction: A Survey
With growing numbers of intelligent autonomous systems in human environments,
the ability of such systems to perceive, understand and anticipate human
behavior becomes increasingly important. Specifically, predicting future
positions of dynamic agents and planning considering such predictions are key
tasks for self-driving vehicles, service robots and advanced surveillance
systems. This paper provides a survey of human motion trajectory prediction. We
review, analyze and structure a large selection of work from different
communities and propose a taxonomy that categorizes existing methods based on
the motion modeling approach and level of contextual information used. We
provide an overview of the existing datasets and performance metrics. We
discuss limitations of the state of the art and outline directions for further
research.Comment: Submitted to the International Journal of Robotics Research (IJRR),

Memory Based Online Learning of Deep Representations from Video Streams
We present a novel online unsupervised method for face identity learning from
video streams. The method exploits deep face descriptors together with a memory
based learning mechanism that takes advantage of the temporal coherence of
visual data. Specifically, we introduce a discriminative feature matching
solution based on Reverse Nearest Neighbour and a feature forgetting strategy
that detect redundant features and discard them appropriately while time
progresses. It is shown that the proposed learning procedure is asymptotically
stable and can be effectively used in relevant applications like multiple face
identification and tracking from unconstrained video streams. Experimental
results show that the proposed method achieves comparable results in the task
of multiple face tracking and better performance in face identification with
offline approaches exploiting future information. Code will be publicly
available.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1708.0361
