Abstract
En 中文
Visual–language tracking often faces challenges like target deformation and confusion caused by similar objects. These issues can disrupt the alignment between visual inputs and their textual descriptions, leading to cross-modal semantic drift and feature-matching errors. To address these issues, we propose SATrack, a Semantic-Aware Alignment framework for visual–language tracking. Specifically, we first propose the Semantically Aware Contrastive Alignment module, which leverages attention-guided semantic distance modeling to identify hard negative samples that are semantically similar but carry different labels. This helps the model better distinguish confusing instances and capture fine-grained cross-modal differences. Secondly, we design the Cross-Modal Token Filtering strategy, which leverages attention responses guided by both the visual template and the textual description to filter out irrelevant or weakly related tokens in the search region. This helps the model focus more precisely on the target. Finally, we propose a Confidence-Guided Template Memory mechanism, which evaluates the prediction quality of each frame using convolutional operations and confidence thresholding. High-confidence frames are stored to selectively update the template memory, enabling the model to adapt to appearance changes over time. Extensive experiments show that SATrack achieves a 65.8% success rate on the TNL2K benchmark, surpassing the previous state-of-the-art UVLTrack by 3.1% and demonstrating superior robustness and accuracy.
