• Abstract: Deep regression trackers are among the fastest tracking algorithms available, and therefore suitable for real-time robotic applications. However, their accuracy is inadequate in many domains due to distribution shift and overfitting. In this paper we overcome such limitations by presenting the first methodology for domain adaption of such a class of trackers. To reduce the labeling effort we propose a weakly-supervised adaptation strategy, in which reinforcement learning is used to express weak supervision as a scalar application-dependent and temporally-delayed feedback. At the same time, knowledge distillation is employed to guarantee learning stability and to compress and transfer knowledge from more powerful but slower trackers. Extensive experiments on five different robotic vision domains demonstrate the relevance of our methodology. Real-time speed is achieved on embedded devices and on machines without GPUs, while accuracy reaches significant results.

  Multiple object tracking is a critical task in autonomous driving. As tracking accuracy improves, neural networks become increasingly complex, posing challenges for their practical application in real driving scenarios due to the high level of latency. In this paper, we explore the use of the neural architecture search (NAS) methods to search for efficient architectures for tracking, aiming for low real-time latency while maintaining relatively high accuracy.

  This paper presents novel techniques that leverage the temporal correlation present in streaming radar data to enhance the efficiency of Early Exit Neural Networks for Deep Learning inference on embedded devices. Our results demonstrate that our techniques save up to 26% of operations per inference over a Single Exit Network and 12% over a confidence-based Early Exit version. Such efficiency gains enable real-time radar data processing on resource-constrained platforms, allowing for new applications in the context of smart homes, Internet-of-Things, and human-computer interaction.
