• Abstract: Most existing trackers based on discriminative correlation filters (DCF) try to introduce predefined regularization term to improve the learning of target objects, e.g., by suppressing background learning or by restricting change rate of correlation filters. However, predefined parameters introduce much effort in tuning them and they still fail to adapt to new situations that the designer did not think of. In this work, a novel approach is proposed to online automatically and adaptively learn spatio-temporal regularization term. Spatially local response map variation is introduced as spatial regularization to make DCF focus on the learning of trust-worthy parts of the object, and global response map variation determines the updating rate of the filter. Extensive experiments on four UAV benchmarks have proven the superiority of our method compared to the state-of-the-art CPU- and GPU-based trackers, with a speed of ~60 frames per second running on a single CPU. Our tracker is additionally proposed to be applied in UAV localization. Considerable tests in the indoor practical scenarios have proven the effectiveness and versatility of our localization method.

  We propose a differentiable simulator and design an analytic policy gradients (APG) approach to training AV controllers. Our proposed framework brings the differentiable simulator into an end-to-end training loop, where gradients of environment dynamics serve as a useful prior to help the agent learn a more grounded policy. We find significant improvements in performance and robustness to noise in the dynamics, as well as overall more intuitive human-like handling.

When a constant step-size is used, these algorithms also have the ability to adapt to drifts in problem parameters, such as data or model properties, and track the optimal solution with reasonable accuracy. We establish a link between steady-state performance derived under stationarity assumptions and the tracking performance of online learners under random walk models.
