Multiple Object Tracking - Objective • To develop Human tracking system by single camera in outdoor environment Xu Yan Quantitative Imaging Laboratory
Multiple Object Tracking - Challenges • The core challenges of the visual object tracking task is the enormous unpredictable variations in targets due to : • environment changes • target deformations • partial occlusions • abrupt motion • camouflage • low image qualities Xu Yan Quantitative Imaging Laboratory
Multiple Object Tracking - Framework Data Association Initialize Human Detector Human Trajectories Predictor Human Detection Prior Knowledge Tracker Xu Yan Quantitative Imaging Laboratory
Human Detection • Now we give the tracker manual initialization in the first frame. Xu Yan Quantitative Imaging Laboratory
