An Overview of the Thermal Infrared Visual Object Tracking VOT-TIR2015 Challenge
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Thermal Infrared Visual Object Tracking (VOT-TIR2015) Challenge was organized in conjunction with ICCV2015. It was the first benchmark on short-term, single-target tracking in thermal infrared (TIR) sequences. The challenge aimed at comparing short-term single-object visual trackers that do not apply pre-learned models of object appearance. It was based on the VOT2013 Challenge, but introduced the following novelties: (i) the utilization of the LTIR (Linköping TIR) dataset, (ii) adaption of the VOT2013 attributes to thermal data, (iii) a similar evaluation to that of VOT2015. This paper provides an overview of the VOT-TIR2015 Challenge as well as the results of the 24 participating trackers.

During recent years, thermal cameras have decreased in both size and cost while improving image quality. The area of use for such cameras has expanded with many exciting applications, many of which require tracking of objects. While being subject to extensive research in the visual domain, tracking in thermal imagery has historically been of interest mainly for military purposes. The available ...
متن کاملDetection and Tracking in Thermal Infrared Imagery
Thermal cameras have historically been of interest mainly for military applications. Increasing image quality and resolution combined with decreasing price and size during recent years have, however, opened up new application areas. They are now widely used for civilian applications, e.g., within industry, to search for missing persons, in automotive safety, as well as for medical applications....
متن کاملThe VOT2013 challenge: overview and additional results
Visual tracking has attracted a significant attention in the last few decades. The recent surge in the number of publications on tracking-related problems have made it almost impossible to follow the developments in the field. One of the reasons is that there is a lack of commonly accepted annotated data-sets and standardized evaluation protocols that would allow objective comparison of differe...
