Online Clustering-based Multi-Camera Vehicle Tracking in Scenarios with overlapping FOVs

Multi-Target Multi-Camera (MTMC) vehicle tracking is an essential task of visual traffic monitoring, one of the main research fields of Intelligent Transportation Systems. Several offline approaches have been proposed to address this task; however, they are not compatible with real-world applications due to their high latency and post-processing requirements. In this paper, we present a new low-latency online approach for MTMC tracking in scenarios with partially overlapping fields of view (FOVs), such as road intersections. Firstly, the proposed approach detects vehicles at each camera. Then, the detections are merged between cameras by applying cross-camera clustering based on appearance and location. Lastly, the clusters containing different detections of the same vehicle are temporally associated to compute the tracks on a frame-by-frame basis. The experiments show promising low-latency results while addressing real-world challenges such as the a priori unknown and time-varying number of targets and the continuous state estimation of them without performing any post-processing of the trajectories.

On guiding video object segmentation

This paper presents a novel approach for segmenting moving objects in unconstrained environments using guided convolutional neural networks. This guiding process relies on foreground masks from independent algorithms (i.e. state-of-the-art algorithms) to implement an attention mechanism that incorporates the spatial location of foreground and background to compute their separated representations. Our approach initially extracts two kinds of features for each frame using colour and optical flow information. Such features are combined following a multiplicative scheme to benefit from their complementarity. These unified colour and motion features are later processed to obtain the separated foreground and background representations. Then, both independent representations are concatenated and decoded to perform foreground segmentation. Experiments conducted on the challenging DAVIS 2016 dataset demonstrate that our guided representations not only outperform non-guided, but also recent and top-performing video object segmentation algorithms.
