Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Visual object tracking is a fundamental task in computer vision that requires estimating the position and scale of a target object in a video sequence. However, scale variation is a difficult challenge that affects the performance and robustness of many trackers, especially those based on the discriminative correlation filter (DCF). Existing scale estimation methods based on multi-scale features are computationally expensive and degrade the real-time performance of the DCF-based tracker, especially in scenarios with restricted computing power. In this paper, we propose a practical and efficient solution that can handle scale changes without using multi-scale features and can be combined with any DCF-based tracker as a plug-in module. We use color name (CN) features and a salient feature to reduce the target appearance model's dimensionality. We then estimate the target scale based on a Gaussian distribution model and introduce global and local scale consistency assumptions to restore the target's scale. We fuse the tracking results with the DCF-based tracker to obtain the new position and scale of the target. We evaluate our method on the benchmark dataset Temple Color 128 and compare it with some popular trackers. Our method achieves competitive accuracy and robustness while significantly reducing the computational cost.
