Bags of Affine Subspaces for Robust Object Tracking
We propose an adaptive tracking algorithm where the object is modelled as a
continuously updated bag of affine subspaces, with each subspace constructed
from the object's appearance over several consecutive frames. In contrast to
linear subspaces, affine subspaces explicitly model the origin of subspaces.
Furthermore, instead of using a brittle point-to-subspace distance during the
search for the object in a new frame, we propose to use a subspace-to-subspace
distance by representing candidate image areas also as affine subspaces.
Distances between subspaces are then obtained by exploiting the non-Euclidean
geometry of Grassmann manifolds. Experiments on challenging videos (containing
object occlusions, deformations, as well as variations in pose and
illumination) indicate that the proposed method achieves higher tracking
accuracy than several recent discriminative trackers.Comment: in International Conference on Digital Image Computing: Techniques

A Sparsity-Aware Adaptive Algorithm for Distributed Learning
In this paper, a sparsity-aware adaptive algorithm for distributed learning
in diffusion networks is developed. The algorithm follows the set-theoretic
estimation rationale. At each time instance and at each node of the network, a
closed convex set, known as property set, is constructed based on the received
measurements; this defines the region in which the solution is searched for. In
this paper, the property sets take the form of hyperslabs. The goal is to find
a point that belongs to the intersection of these hyperslabs. To this end,
sparsity encouraging variable metric projections onto the hyperslabs have been
adopted. Moreover, sparsity is also imposed by employing variable metric
projections onto weighted balls. A combine adapt cooperation strategy
is adopted. Under some mild assumptions, the scheme enjoys monotonicity,
asymptotic optimality and strong convergence to a point that lies in the
consensus subspace. Finally, numerical examples verify the validity of the
proposed scheme, compared to other algorithms, which have been developed in the
context of sparse adaptive learning
Non-sparse Linear Representations for Visual Tracking with Online Reservoir Metric Learning
Most sparse linear representation-based trackers need to solve a
computationally expensive L1-regularized optimization problem. To address this
problem, we propose a visual tracker based on non-sparse linear
representations, which admit an efficient closed-form solution without
sacrificing accuracy. Moreover, in order to capture the correlation information
between different feature dimensions, we learn a Mahalanobis distance metric in
an online fashion and incorporate the learned metric into the optimization
problem for obtaining the linear representation. We show that online metric
learning using proximity comparison significantly improves the robustness of
the tracking, especially on those sequences exhibiting drastic appearance
changes. Furthermore, in order to prevent the unbounded growth in the number of
training samples for the metric learning, we design a time-weighted reservoir
sampling method to maintain and update limited-sized foreground and background
sample buffers for balancing sample diversity and adaptability. Experimental
results on challenging videos demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of
the proposed tracker.Comment: Appearing in IEEE Conf. Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 201
