A novel Half-To-All MOTR approach for robust video text tracking with incomplete annotations
摘要
A novel half-To-All multiple object tracking and recognition (HTAMotr) approach is proposed to address the challenges posed by incomplete annotations in video text tracking. Three key strategies were introduced: rotated queries to improve anchor alignment with text regions, the Proposal-For-Groundtruth Strong Correlation (PForG) strategy to mitigate the negative effects of incomplete annotations, and an overlapping anchor filter to resolve ID switching issues. Experiments conducted on the DSText dataset and ICDAR2015 Video dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of HTAMotr, achieving state-of-the-art performance without requiring additional pre-training data or extensive epochs. By addressing the limitations of traditional MOTR paradigms, this work contributes to advancing video text tracking techniques and facilitating the development of more robust and efficient algorithms. The code and datasets are available at https://github.com/Paige-Norton/HTAMotr, complete with usage guides to facilitate the reproduction of experimental results.
