Generalized Kernel-based Visual Tracking
In this work we generalize the plain MS trackers and attempt to overcome
standard mean shift trackers' two limitations.
It is well known that modeling and maintaining a representation of a target
object is an important component of a successful visual tracker.
However, little work has been done on building a robust template model for
kernel-based MS tracking. In contrast to building a template from a single
frame, we train a robust object representation model from a large amount of
data. Tracking is viewed as a binary classification problem, and a
discriminative classification rule is learned to distinguish between the object
and background. We adopt a support vector machine (SVM) for training. The
tracker is then implemented by maximizing the classification score. An
iterative optimization scheme very similar to MS is derived for this purpose.Comment: 12 page
Learning Adaptive Discriminative Correlation Filters via Temporal Consistency Preserving Spatial Feature Selection for Robust Visual Tracking
With efficient appearance learning models, Discriminative Correlation Filter
(DCF) has been proven to be very successful in recent video object tracking
benchmarks and competitions. However, the existing DCF paradigm suffers from
two major issues, i.e., spatial boundary effect and temporal filter
degradation. To mitigate these challenges, we propose a new DCF-based tracking
method. The key innovations of the proposed method include adaptive spatial
feature selection and temporal consistent constraints, with which the new
tracker enables joint spatial-temporal filter learning in a lower dimensional
discriminative manifold. More specifically, we apply structured spatial
sparsity constraints to multi-channel filers. Consequently, the process of
learning spatial filters can be approximated by the lasso regularisation. To
encourage temporal consistency, the filter model is restricted to lie around
its historical value and updated locally to preserve the global structure in
the manifold. Last, a unified optimisation framework is proposed to jointly
select temporal consistency preserving spatial features and learn
discriminative filters with the augmented Lagrangian method. Qualitative and
quantitative evaluations have been conducted on a number of well-known
benchmarking datasets such as OTB2013, OTB50, OTB100, Temple-Colour, UAV123 and
VOT2018. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed
method over the state-of-the-art approaches
