Learning Spatial-Aware Regressions for Visual Tracking
In this paper, we analyze the spatial information of deep features, and
propose two complementary regressions for robust visual tracking. First, we
propose a kernelized ridge regression model wherein the kernel value is defined
as the weighted sum of similarity scores of all pairs of patches between two
samples. We show that this model can be formulated as a neural network and thus
can be efficiently solved. Second, we propose a fully convolutional neural
network with spatially regularized kernels, through which the filter kernel
corresponding to each output channel is forced to focus on a specific region of
the target. Distance transform pooling is further exploited to determine the
effectiveness of each output channel of the convolution layer. The outputs from
the kernelized ridge regression model and the fully convolutional neural
network are combined to obtain the ultimate response. Experimental results on
two benchmark datasets validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.Comment: To appear in CVPR201
Self-Selective Correlation Ship Tracking Method for Smart Ocean System
In recent years, with the development of the marine industry, navigation
environment becomes more complicated. Some artificial intelligence
technologies, such as computer vision, can recognize, track and count the
sailing ships to ensure the maritime security and facilitates the management
for Smart Ocean System. Aiming at the scaling problem and boundary effect
problem of traditional correlation filtering methods, we propose a
self-selective correlation filtering method based on box regression (BRCF). The
proposed method mainly include: 1) A self-selective model with negative samples
mining method which effectively reduces the boundary effect in strengthening
the classification ability of classifier at the same time; 2) A bounding box
regression method combined with a key points matching method for the scale
prediction, leading to a fast and efficient calculation. The experimental
results show that the proposed method can effectively deal with the problem of
ship size changes and background interference. The success rates and precisions
were higher than Discriminative Scale Space Tracking (DSST) by over 8
percentage points on the marine traffic dataset of our laboratory. In terms of
processing speed, the proposed method is higher than DSST by nearly 22 Frames

End-to-end Flow Correlation Tracking with Spatial-temporal Attention
Discriminative correlation filters (DCF) with deep convolutional features
have achieved favorable performance in recent tracking benchmarks. However,
most of existing DCF trackers only consider appearance features of current
frame, and hardly benefit from motion and inter-frame information. The lack of
temporal information degrades the tracking performance during challenges such
as partial occlusion and deformation. In this work, we focus on making use of
the rich flow information in consecutive frames to improve the feature
representation and the tracking accuracy. Firstly, individual components,
including optical flow estimation, feature extraction, aggregation and
correlation filter tracking are formulated as special layers in network. To the
best of our knowledge, this is the first work to jointly train flow and
tracking task in a deep learning framework. Then the historical feature maps at
predefined intervals are warped and aggregated with current ones by the guiding
of flow. For adaptive aggregation, we propose a novel spatial-temporal
attention mechanism. Extensive experiments are performed on four challenging
tracking datasets: OTB2013, OTB2015, VOT2015 and VOT2016, and the proposed
method achieves superior results on these benchmarks.Comment: Accepted in CVPR 201
Learning Background-Aware Correlation Filters for Visual Tracking
Correlation Filters (CFs) have recently demonstrated excellent performance in
terms of rapidly tracking objects under challenging photometric and geometric
variations. The strength of the approach comes from its ability to efficiently
learn - "on the fly" - how the object is changing over time. A fundamental
drawback to CFs, however, is that the background of the object is not be
modelled over time which can result in suboptimal results. In this paper we
propose a Background-Aware CF that can model how both the foreground and
background of the object varies over time. Our approach, like conventional CFs,
is extremely computationally efficient - and extensive experiments over
multiple tracking benchmarks demonstrate the superior accuracy and real-time
performance of our method compared to the state-of-the-art trackers including
those based on a deep learning paradigm
