为了克服多个对象跟踪任务中的挑战，最近的算法将交互线索与运动和外观特征一起使用。这些算法使用图形神经网络或变压器来提取导致高计算成本的交互功能。在本文中，提出了一种基于几何特征的新型交互提示，旨在检测遮挡和重新识别计算成本低的丢失目标。此外，在大多数算法中，摄像机运动被认为可以忽略不计，这是一个强有力的假设，并不总是正确的，并且导致目标转换或目标不匹配。在本文中，提出了一种测量相机运动和删除其效果的方法，可有效地降低相机运动对跟踪的影响。该算法在MOT17和MOT20数据集上进行了评估，并在MOT20上实现了MOT17的最先进性能和可比较的结果。该代码也可以公开使用。

对象运动和对象外观是多个对象跟踪（MOT）应用中的常用信息，用于将帧跨越帧的检测相关联，或用于联合检测和跟踪方法的直接跟踪预测。然而，不仅是这两种类型的信息通常是单独考虑的，而且它们也没有帮助直接从当前感兴趣帧中使用视觉信息的用法。在本文中，我们提出了PatchTrack，一种基于变压器的联合检测和跟踪系统，其使用当前感兴趣的帧帧的曲线预测曲目。我们使用卡尔曼滤波器从前一帧预测当前帧中的现有轨道的位置。从预测边界框裁剪的补丁被发送到变压器解码器以推断新曲目。通过利用在补丁中编码的对象运动和对象外观信息，所提出的方法将更多地关注新曲目更有可能发生的位置。我们展示了近期MOT基准的Patchtrack的有效性，包括MOT16（MOTA 73.71％，IDF1 65.77％）和MOT17（MOTA 73.59％，IDF1 65.23％）。结果在https://motchallenge.net/method/mot=4725&chl=10上发布。

This paper explores a pragmatic approach to multiple object tracking where the main focus is to associate objects efficiently for online and realtime applications. To this end, detection quality is identified as a key factor influencing tracking performance, where changing the detector can improve tracking by up to 18.9%. Despite only using a rudimentary combination of familiar techniques such as the Kalman Filter and Hungarian algorithm for the tracking components, this approach achieves an accuracy comparable to state-of-the-art online trackers. Furthermore, due to the simplicity of our tracking method, the tracker updates at a rate of 260 Hz which is over 20x faster than other state-of-the-art trackers.

Simple Online and Realtime Tracking (SORT) is a pragmatic approach to multiple object tracking with a focus on simple, effective algorithms. In this paper, we integrate appearance information to improve the performance of SORT. Due to this extension we are able to track objects through longer periods of occlusions, effectively reducing the number of identity switches. In spirit of the original framework we place much of the computational complexity into an offline pre-training stage where we learn a deep association metric on a largescale person re-identification dataset. During online application, we establish measurement-to-track associations using nearest neighbor queries in visual appearance space. Experimental evaluation shows that our extensions reduce the number of identity switches by 45%, achieving overall competitive performance at high frame rates.

多对象跟踪（MOT）的目标是检测和跟踪场景中的所有对象，同时为每个对象保留唯一的标识符。在本文中，我们提出了一种新的可靠的最新跟踪器，该跟踪器可以结合运动和外观信息的优势，以及摄像机运动补偿以及更准确的Kalman滤波器状态矢量。我们的新跟踪器在Mot17和Mot20测试集的Motchallenge [29，11]的数据集[29，11]中，Bot-Sort-Reid排名第一，就所有主要MOT指标而言：MOTA，IDF1和HOTA。对于Mot17：80.5 Mota，80.2 IDF1和65.0 HOTA。源代码和预培训模型可在https://github.com/niraharon/bot-sort上找到

The problem of tracking multiple objects in a video sequence poses several challenging tasks. For tracking-bydetection, these include object re-identification, motion prediction and dealing with occlusions. We present a tracker (without bells and whistles) that accomplishes tracking without specifically targeting any of these tasks, in particular, we perform no training or optimization on tracking data. To this end, we exploit the bounding box regression of an object detector to predict the position of an object in the next frame, thereby converting a detector into a Tracktor. We demonstrate the potential of Tracktor and provide a new state-of-the-art on three multi-object tracking benchmarks by extending it with a straightforward re-identification and camera motion compensation.We then perform an analysis on the performance and failure cases of several state-of-the-art tracking methods in comparison to our Tracktor. Surprisingly, none of the dedicated tracking methods are considerably better in dealing with complex tracking scenarios, namely, small and occluded objects or missing detections. However, our approach tackles most of the easy tracking scenarios. Therefore, we motivate our approach as a new tracking paradigm and point out promising future research directions. Overall, Tracktor yields superior tracking performance than any current tracking method and our analysis exposes remaining and unsolved tracking challenges to inspire future research directions.

3D多对象跟踪（MOT）确保在连续动态检测过程中保持一致性，有利于自动驾驶中随后的运动计划和导航任务。但是，基于摄像头的方法在闭塞情况下受到影响，准确跟踪基于激光雷达的方法的对象的不规则运动可能是具有挑战性的。某些融合方法效果很好，但不认为在遮挡下出现外观特征的不可信问题。同时，错误检测问题也显着影响跟踪。因此，我们根据组合的外观运动优化（Camo-Mot）提出了一种新颖的相机融合3D MOT框架，该框架使用相机和激光镜数据，并大大减少了由遮挡和错误检测引起的跟踪故障。对于遮挡问题，我们是第一个提出遮挡头来有效地选择最佳对象外观的人，从而减少了闭塞的影响。为了减少错误检测在跟踪中的影响，我们根据置信得分设计一个运动成本矩阵，从而提高了3D空间中的定位和对象预测准确性。由于现有的多目标跟踪方法仅考虑一个类别，因此我们还建议建立多类损失，以在多类别场景中实现多目标跟踪。在Kitti和Nuscenes跟踪基准测试上进行了一系列验证实验。我们提出的方法在KITTI测试数据集上的所有多模式MOT方法中实现了最先进的性能和最低的身份开关（IDS）值（CAR为23，行人为137）。并且我们提出的方法在Nuscenes测试数据集上以75.3％的AMOTA进行了所有算法中的最新性能。

视频中的多目标跟踪需要解决相邻帧中对象之间一对一分配的基本问题。大多数方法通过首先丢弃不可能的对距离大于阈值的不可能对解决问题，然后使用匈牙利算法将对象链接起来以最大程度地减少整体距离。但是，我们发现从重新ID特征计算出的距离的分布可能在不同的视频中有很大差异。因此，没有一个最佳阈值可以使我们安全丢弃不可能的对。为了解决该问题，我们提出了一种有效的方法来实时计算每对对象的边际概率。边际概率可以视为标准化距离，比原始特征距离明显稳定。结果，我们可以为所有视频使用一个阈值。该方法是一般的，可以应用于现有的跟踪器，以在IDF1度量方面获得大约一个点改进。它在MOT17和MOT20基准上取得了竞争成果。此外，计算的概率更容易解释，从而有助于后续后期处理操作。

多对象跟踪（MOT）是计算机视觉领域的重要技术，该技术广泛用于自动驾驶，智能监控，行为识别和其他方向。在基于深度学习的当前流行MOT方法中，基于检测的跟踪（DBT）是行业中最广泛使用的，它们的性能取决于其对象检测网络。目前，性能良好，使用最广泛的DBT算法是Yolov5-Deepsort。受Yolov5-Deepsort的启发，Yolov7网络的建议在对象检测方面的性能更好，我们将Yolov7应用于DeepSort，并提出Yolov7-Deepsort。经过实验评估后，与以前的Yolov5-Deepsort相比，Yolov7-Deepsort的表现更好地跟踪准确性。

以前的在线3D多对象跟踪（3DMOT）方法在与几帧的新检测无关时终止ROCKET。但是如果一个物体刚刚变暗，就像被其他物体暂时封闭或者只是从FOV暂时封闭一样，过早地终止ROCKET将导致身份切换。我们揭示了过早的轨迹终端是现代3DMOT系统中身份开关的主要原因。为了解决这个问题，我们提出了一个不朽的跟踪器，一个简单的跟踪系统，它利用轨迹预测来维护对象变暗的物体的轨迹。我们使用一个简单的卡尔曼滤波器进行轨迹预测，并在目标不可见时通过预测保留轨迹。通过这种方法，我们可以避免由过早托管终止产生的96％的车辆标识开关。如果没有任何学习的参数，我们的方法在Waymo Open DataSet测试集上的车载类别的0.0001级和竞争Mota处实现了不匹配的比率。我们的不匹配比率比任何先前发表的方法低一倍。在NUSCENes上报告了类似的结果。我们相信拟议的不朽追踪器可以为推动3DMOT的极限提供简单而强大的解决方案。我们的代码可在https://github.com/immortaltracker/immortaltracker中找到。

Tracking has traditionally been the art of following interest points through space and time. This changed with the rise of powerful deep networks. Nowadays, tracking is dominated by pipelines that perform object detection followed by temporal association, also known as tracking-by-detection. We present a simultaneous detection and tracking algorithm that is simpler, faster, and more accurate than the state of the art. Our tracker, CenterTrack, applies a detection model to a pair of images and detections from the prior frame. Given this minimal input, CenterTrack localizes objects and predicts their associations with the previous frame. That's it. CenterTrack is simple, online (no peeking into the future), and real-time. It achieves 67.8% MOTA on the MOT17 challenge at 22 FPS and 89.4% MOTA on the KITTI tracking benchmark at 15 FPS, setting a new state of the art on both datasets. CenterTrack is easily extended to monocular 3D tracking by regressing additional 3D attributes. Using monocular video input, it achieves 28.3% AMOTA@0.2 on the newly released nuScenes 3D tracking benchmark, substantially outperforming the monocular baseline on this benchmark while running at 28 FPS.

近年来，多个对象跟踪引起了研究人员的极大兴趣，它已成为计算机视觉中的趋势问题之一，尤其是随着自动驾驶的最新发展。 MOT是针对不同问题的关键视觉任务之一，例如拥挤的场景中的闭塞，相似的外观，小物体检测难度，ID切换等，以应对这些挑战，因为研究人员试图利用变压器的注意力机制，与田径的相互关系，与田径的相互关系，图形卷积神经网络，与暹罗网络不同帧中对象的外观相似性，他们还尝试了基于IOU匹配的CNN网络，使用LSTM的运动预测。为了将这些零散的技术在雨伞下采用，我们研究了过去三年发表的一百多篇论文，并试图提取近代研究人员更关注的技术来解决MOT的问题。我们已经征集了许多应用，可能性以及MOT如何与现实生活有关。我们的评论试图展示研究人员使用过时的技术的不同观点，并为潜在的研究人员提供了一些未来的方向。此外，我们在这篇评论中包括了流行的基准数据集和指标。

To track the 3D locations and trajectories of the other traffic participants at any given time, modern autonomous vehicles are equipped with multiple cameras that cover the vehicle's full surroundings. Yet, camera-based 3D object tracking methods prioritize optimizing the single-camera setup and resort to post-hoc fusion in a multi-camera setup. In this paper, we propose a method for panoramic 3D object tracking, called CC-3DT, that associates and models object trajectories both temporally and across views, and improves the overall tracking consistency. In particular, our method fuses 3D detections from multiple cameras before association, reducing identity switches significantly and improving motion modeling. Our experiments on large-scale driving datasets show that fusion before association leads to a large margin of improvement over post-hoc fusion. We set a new state-of-the-art with 12.6% improvement in average multi-object tracking accuracy (AMOTA) among all camera-based methods on the competitive NuScenes 3D tracking benchmark, outperforming previously published methods by 6.5% in AMOTA with the same 3D detector.

Existing Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) methods design complex architectures for better tracking performance. However, without a proper organization of input information, they still fail to perform tracking robustly and suffer from frequent identity switches. In this paper, we propose two novel methods together with a simple online Message Passing Network (MPN) to address these limitations. First, we explore different integration methods for the graph node and edge embeddings and put forward a new IoU (Intersection over Union) guided function, which improves long term tracking and handles identity switches. Second, we introduce a hierarchical sampling strategy to construct sparser graphs which allows to focus the training on more difficult samples. Experimental results demonstrate that a simple online MPN with these two contributions can perform better than many state-of-the-art methods. In addition, our association method generalizes well and can also improve the results of private detection based methods.

We propose a Cascaded Buffered IoU (C-BIoU) tracker to track multiple objects that have irregular motions and indistinguishable appearances. When appearance features are unreliable and geometric features are confused by irregular motions, applying conventional Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) methods may generate unsatisfactory results. To address this issue, our C-BIoU tracker adds buffers to expand the matching space of detections and tracks, which mitigates the effect of irregular motions in two aspects: one is to directly match identical but non-overlapping detections and tracks in adjacent frames, and the other is to compensate for the motion estimation bias in the matching space. In addition, to reduce the risk of overexpansion of the matching space, cascaded matching is employed: first matching alive tracks and detections with a small buffer, and then matching unmatched tracks and detections with a large buffer. Despite its simplicity, our C-BIoU tracker works surprisingly well and achieves state-of-the-art results on MOT datasets that focus on irregular motions and indistinguishable appearances. Moreover, the C-BIoU tracker is the dominant component for our 2-nd place solution in the CVPR'22 SoccerNet MOT and ECCV'22 MOTComplex DanceTrack challenges. Finally, we analyze the limitation of our C-BIoU tracker in ablation studies and discuss its application scope.

How would you fairly evaluate two multi-object tracking algorithms (i.e. trackers), each one employing a different object detector? Detectors keep improving, thus trackers can make less effort to estimate object states over time. Is it then fair to compare a new tracker employing a new detector with another tracker using an old detector? In this paper, we propose a novel performance measure, named Tracking Effort Measure (TEM), to evaluate trackers that use different detectors. TEM estimates the improvement that the tracker does with respect to its input data (i.e. detections) at frame level (intra-frame complexity) and sequence level (inter-frame complexity). We evaluate TEM over well-known datasets, four trackers and eight detection sets. Results show that, unlike conventional tracking evaluation measures, TEM can quantify the effort done by the tracker with a reduced correlation on the input detections. Its implementation is publicly available online at https://github.com/vpulab/MOT-evaluation.

Accurate representation and localization of relevant objects is important for robots to perform tasks. Building a generic representation that can be used across different environments and tasks is not easy, as the relevant objects vary depending on the environment and the task. Furthermore, another challenge arises in agro-food environments due to their complexity, and high levels of clutter and occlusions. In this paper, we present a method to build generic representations in highly occluded agro-food environments using multi-view perception and 3D multi-object tracking. Our representation is built upon a detection algorithm that generates a partial point cloud for each detected object. The detected objects are then passed to a 3D multi-object tracking algorithm that creates and updates the representation over time. The whole process is performed at a rate of 10 Hz. We evaluated the accuracy of the representation on a real-world agro-food environment, where it was able to successfully represent and locate tomatoes in tomato plants despite a high level of occlusion. We were able to estimate the total count of tomatoes with a maximum error of 5.08% and to track tomatoes with a tracking accuracy up to 71.47%. Additionally, we showed that an evaluation using tracking metrics gives more insight in the errors in localizing and representing the fruits.

多摄像机多对象跟踪目前在计算机视野中引起了注意力，因为它在现实世界应用中的卓越性能，如具有拥挤场景或巨大空间的视频监控。在这项工作中，我们提出了一种基于空间升降的多乳制型配方的数学上优雅的多摄像多对象跟踪方法。我们的模型利用单摄像头跟踪器产生的最先进的TOOTWLET作为提案。由于这些Tracklet可能包含ID-Switch错误，因此我们通过从3D几何投影获得的新型预簇来完善它们。因此，我们派生了更好的跟踪图，没有ID交换机，更精确的数据关联阶段的亲和力成本。然后通过求解全局提升的多乳制型制剂，将轨迹与多摄像机轨迹匹配，该组件包含位于同一相机和相互相机间的Tracklet上的短路和远程时间交互。在Wildtrack DataSet的实验结果是近乎完美的结果，在校园上表现出最先进的追踪器，同时在PETS-09数据集上处于校准状态。我们将在接受纸质时进行我们的实施。

数据关联是遵循逐个检测范式跟踪的任何多个对象跟踪方法（MOT）方法的关键组件。为了生成完整的轨迹，这种方法采用数据关联过程来在每个时间步长期间建立检测和现有目标之间的分配。最近的数据关联方法试图解决多维线性分配任务或网络流量最小化问题，或者要么通过多个假设跟踪解决。但是，在推论过程中，每个序列帧都需要计算最佳分配的优化步骤，并在任何给定的解决方案中添加显着的计算复杂性。为此，在这项工作的背景下，我们介绍了基于变压器的作业决策网络（TADN），该决策网络（TADN）可以解决数据关联，而无需在推理过程中进行任何明确的优化。特别是，TADN可以在网络的单个正向传球中直接推断检测和活动目标之间的分配对。我们已经将TADN整合到了一个相当简单的MOT框架中，我们设计了一种新颖的培训策略，用于有效的端到端培训，并在两个流行的基准上展示了我们在线视觉跟踪MOT的高潜力，即Mot17和Mot17和UA-DETRAC。我们提出的方法在大多数评估指标中的最新方法都优于最先进的方法，尽管它作为跟踪器的简单性质缺乏重要的辅助组件，例如闭塞处理或重新识别。我们的方法的实现可在https://github.com/psaltaath/tadn-mot上公开获得。

本文旨在解决多个对象跟踪（MOT），这是计算机视觉中的一个重要问题，但由于许多实际问题，尤其是阻塞，因此仍然具有挑战性。确实，我们提出了一种新的实时深度透视图 - 了解多个对象跟踪（DP-MOT）方法，以解决MOT中的闭塞问题。首先提出了一个简单但有效的主题深度估计（SODE），以在2D场景中自动以无监督的方式自动订购检测到的受试者的深度位置。使用SODE的输出，提出了一个新的活动伪3D KALMAN滤波器，即具有动态控制变量的Kalman滤波器的简单但有效的扩展，以动态更新对象的运动。此外，在数据关联步骤中提出了一种新的高阶关联方法，以合并检测到的对象之间的一阶和二阶关系。与标准MOT基准的最新MOT方法相比，提出的方法始终达到最先进的性能。
