Motion and appearance cues play a crucial role in Multi-object Tracking (MOT) algorithms for associating objects across consecutive frames.

摘要

Motion and appearance cues play a crucial role in Multi-object Tracking (MOT) algorithms for associating objects across consecutive frames. While most MOT methods prioritize accurate motion modeling and distinctive appearance representations, the use of appearance and motion cues is often confined to simplistic association techniques. For instance, fixed weights are commonly employed to combine the intersection-over-union (IoU) matrix and appearance similarity matrix, yielding an association cost matrix. To harness the full potential of motion and appearance cues across diverse scenarios, we propose an innovative approach that dynamically balances motion and appearance cues based on scene and object information during the association process. Furthermore, we introduce a new mechanism for updating appearance representations, effectively mitigating noise introduced by occlusion. Our method demonstrates state-of-the-art performance on the MOT17 and MOT20 test sets.
