Visual Learning in Multiple-Object Tracking

Visual Learning in Multiple-Object Tracking

BACKGROUND Tracking moving objects in space is important for the maintenance of spatiotemporal continuity in everyday visual tasks. In the laboratory, this ability is tested using the Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) task, where participants track a subset of moving objects with attention over an extended period of time. The ability to track multiple objects with attention is severely limited. Re...

Multiple-Cue-Based Visual Object Contour Tracking with Incremental Learning

This paper proposes a visual object contour tracking algorithm using a multi-cue fusion particle filter. A novel contour evolution energy is proposed which integrates an incrementally learnt model of object appearance with a parametric snake model. This energy function is combined with a mixed cascade particle filter tracking algorithm which fuses multiple observation models for object contour ...

Occlusion Reasoning for Multiple Object Visual Tracking

Occlusion reasoning for visual object tracking in uncontrolled environments is a challenging problem. It becomes significantly more difficult when dense groups of indistinguishable objects are present in the scene that cause frequent inter-object interactions and occlusions. We present several practical solutions that tackle the inter-object occlusions for video surveillance applications. In pa...

Structured Learning for Multiple Object Tracking

Many adaptive tracking-by-detection methods have been proposed to track object with slowly changing appearance. However, most of those methods are designed for single object tracking. This paper proposes a method for adaptively tracking multiple objects based on a modified structured Support Vector Machine (SVM). The method utilizes the inter-object constraints and the layout information, which...
