• Authors: Zhongdao Wang, Hengshuang Zhao, Ya-Li Li, Shengjin Wang, Philip H.S. Torr, Luca Bertinetto
• Abstract summary: We present UniTrack, a unified tracking solution to address five different tasks within the same framework. UniTrack consists of a single and task-agnostic appearance model, which can be learned in a supervised or self-supervised fashion. We show how most tracking tasks can be solved within this framework, and that the same appearance model can be used to obtain performance that is competitive against specialised methods for all the five tasks considered.

• Abstract: Tracking objects of interest in a video is one of the most popular and widely applicable problems in computer vision. However, with the years, a Cambrian explosion of use cases and benchmarks has fragmented the problem in a multitude of different experimental setups. As a consequence, the literature has fragmented too, and now the novel approaches proposed by the community are usually specialised to fit only one specific setup. To understand to what extent this specialisation is actually necessary, in this work we present UniTrack, a unified tracking solution to address five different tasks within the same framework. UniTrack consists of a single and task-agnostic appearance model, which can be learned in a supervised or self-supervised fashion, and multiple "heads" to address individual tasks and that do not require training. We show how most tracking tasks can be solved within this framework, and that the same appearance model can be used to obtain performance that is competitive against specialised methods for all the five tasks considered. The framework also allows us to analyse appearance models obtained with the most recent self-supervised methods, thus significantly extending their evaluation and comparison to a larger variety of important problems.

  We develop a single model tracker that can remain blind to any modality X during inference time. Our training process is extremely simple, integrating multi-label classification loss with a routing function. Our generalist and blind tracker can achieve competitive performance compared to well-established modal-specific models.

  In multi-object tracking, the tracker maintains in its memory the appearance and motion information for each object in the scene. Many approaches model each target in isolation and lack the ability to use all the targets in the scene to jointly update the memory. We propose a training strategy adapted to multi-track pooling which generates hard tracking episodes online.
