Deep Learning-Based Multiple Object Visual Tracking on Embedded System for IoT and Mobile Edge Computing Applications
Compute and memory demands of state-of-the-art deep learning methods are
still a shortcoming that must be addressed to make them useful at IoT
end-nodes. In particular, recent results depict a hopeful prospect for image
processing using Convolutional Neural Netwoks, CNNs, but the gap between
software and hardware implementations is already considerable for IoT and
mobile edge computing applications due to their high power consumption. This
proposal performs low-power and real time deep learning-based multiple object
visual tracking implemented on an NVIDIA Jetson TX2 development kit. It
includes a camera and wireless connection capability and it is battery powered
for mobile and outdoor applications. A collection of representative sequences
captured with the on-board camera, dETRUSC video dataset, is used to exemplify
the performance of the proposed algorithm and to facilitate benchmarking. The
results in terms of power consumption and frame rate demonstrate the
feasibility of deep learning algorithms on embedded platforms although more
effort to joint algorithm and hardware design of CNNs is needed.Comment: This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication.
