Multiple object trackingMultiple object tracking in point cloud sequences aims to detect objects of interest in each frame and associate them across time to construct coherent trajectories for each individual object. Existing methods typically adopt a tracking-by-detection frameworkTracking-by-detection framework, where tracking is performed based on object boxes generated by a pre-trained detector.
