Fusion of Head and Full-Body Detectors for Multi-Object Tracking
In order to track all persons in a scene, the tracking-by-detection paradigm
has proven to be a very effective approach. Yet, relying solely on a single
detector is also a major limitation, as useful image information might be
ignored. Consequently, this work demonstrates how to fuse two detectors into a
tracking system. To obtain the trajectories, we propose to formulate tracking
as a weighted graph labeling problem, resulting in a binary quadratic program.
As such problems are NP-hard, the solution can only be approximated. Based on
the Frank-Wolfe algorithm, we present a new solver that is crucial to handle
such difficult problems. Evaluation on pedestrian tracking is provided for
multiple scenarios, showing superior results over single detector tracking and
standard QP-solvers. Finally, our tracker ranks 2nd on the MOT16 benchmark and
1st on the new MOT17 benchmark, outperforming over 90 trackers.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures; Winner of the MOT17 challenge; CVPRW 201
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
FollowMe: Efficient Online Min-Cost Flow Tracking with Bounded Memory and Computation
One of the most popular approaches to multi-target tracking is
tracking-by-detection. Current min-cost flow algorithms which solve the data
association problem optimally have three main drawbacks: they are
computationally expensive, they assume that the whole video is given as a
batch, and they scale badly in memory and computation with the length of the
video sequence. In this paper, we address each of these issues, resulting in a
computationally and memory-bounded solution. First, we introduce a dynamic
version of the successive shortest-path algorithm which solves the data
association problem optimally while reusing computation, resulting in
significantly faster inference than standard solvers. Second, we address the
optimal solution to the data association problem when dealing with an incoming
stream of data (i.e., online setting). Finally, we present our main
contribution which is an approximate online solution with bounded memory and
computation which is capable of handling videos of arbitrarily length while
performing tracking in real time. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our
algorithms on the KITTI and PETS2009 benchmarks and show state-of-the-art
performance, while being significantly faster than existing solvers
