• Abstract summary: Multi-object tracking is a fundamental vision problem that has been studied for a long time. Despite the success of Tracking by Detection (TBD), this two-step method is too complicated to train in an end-to-end manner. We propose a concise end-to-end model TubeTK which only needs one step training by introducing the bounding-tube" to indicate temporal-spatial locations of objects in a short video clip.

• Abstract: Multi-object tracking is a fundamental vision problem that has been studied for a long time. As deep learning brings excellent performances to object detection algorithms, Tracking by Detection (TBD) has become the mainstream tracking framework. Despite the success of TBD, this two-step method is too complicated to train in an end-to-end manner and induces many challenges as well, such as insufficient exploration of video spatial-temporal information, vulnerability when facing object occlusion, and excessive reliance on detection results. To address these challenges, we propose a concise end-to-end model TubeTK which only needs one step training by introducing the ``bounding-tube" to indicate temporal-spatial locations of objects in a short video clip. TubeTK provides a novel direction of multi-object tracking, and we demonstrate its potential to solve the above challenges without bells and whistles. We analyze the performance of TubeTK on several MOT benchmarks and provide empirical evidence to show that TubeTK has the ability to overcome occlusions to some extent without any ancillary technologies like Re-ID. Compared with other methods that adopt private detection results, our one-stage end-to-end model achieves state-of-the-art performances even if it adopts no ready-made detection results. We hope that the proposed TubeTK model can serve as a simple but strong alternative for video-based MOT task. The code and models are available at https://github.com/BoPang1996/TubeTK.

  This issue amalgamates the complexities of open-vocabulary object detection (OVD) and multi-object tracking (MOT) Existing approaches to OVMOT often merge OVD and MOT methodologies as separate modules, predominantly focusing on the problem through an image-centric lens. We propose VOVTrack, a novel method that integrates object states relevant to MOT and video-centric training to address this challenge from a video object tracking standpoint.

  We present Quasi-Dense Similarity Learning, which densely samples hundreds of object regions on a pair of images for contrastive learning. We find that the resulting distinctive feature space admits a simple nearest neighbor search at inference time for object association. We show that our similarity learning scheme is not limited to video data, but can learn effective instance similarity even from static input.

  This paper presents a novel multi-modal reconstruction network, named Multimodal Channel-Mixing (MCM) as a pre-trained model to learn robust representation for facilitating multi-modal fusion. The approach follows an early fusion setup, integrating a Channel-Mixing module, where two out of five channels are randomly dropped. This module not only reduces channel redundancy, but also facilitates multi-modal learning and reconstruction capabilities, resulting in robust feature learning.
