Sequential sensor fusion combining probability hypothesis density and kernelized correlation filters for multi-object tracking in video data
This work applies the Gaussian Mixture Probability Hypothesis Density (GMPHD) Filter to multi-object tracking in video data. In order to take advantage of additional visual information, Kernelized Correlation Filters (KCF) are evaluated as a possible extension of the GMPHD tracking-by-detection scheme to enhance its performance. The baseline GMPHD filter and its extension are evaluated on the UA-DETRAC benchmark, showing that combining both methods leads to a higher recall and a better quality of object tracks to the cost of increased computational complexity and increased sensitivity to false-positives.
