• Abstract summary: Generic Object Tracking (GOT) is the problem of tracking target objects, specified by bounding boxes in the first frame of a video. We introduce a new large-scale GOT benchmark, LaGOT, containing multiple annotated target objects per sequence. Our approach achieves highly competitive results on single-object GOT datasets, setting a new state of the art on TrackingNet with a success rate AUC of 84.4%.

• Abstract: Generic Object Tracking (GOT) is the problem of tracking target objects, specified by bounding boxes in the first frame of a video. While the task has received much attention in the last decades, researchers have almost exclusively focused on the single object setting. Multi-object GOT benefits from a wider applicability, rendering it more attractive in real-world applications. We attribute the lack of research interest into this problem to the absence of suitable benchmarks. In this work, we introduce a new large-scale GOT benchmark, LaGOT, containing multiple annotated target objects per sequence. Our benchmark allows users to tackle key remaining challenges in GOT, aiming to increase robustness and reduce computation through joint tracking of multiple objects simultaneously. In addition, we propose a transformer-based GOT tracker baseline capable of joint processing of multiple objects through shared computation. Our approach achieves a 4x faster run-time in case of 10 concurrent objects compared to tracking each object independently and outperforms existing single object trackers on our new benchmark. In addition, our approach achieves highly competitive results on single-object GOT datasets, setting a new state of the art on TrackingNet with a success rate AUC of 84.4%. Our benchmark, code, and trained models will be made publicly available.

  Multi-object tracking (MOT) endeavors to precisely estimate identities and positions of multiple objects over time. Modern detectors may occasionally miss some objects in certain frames, causing trackers to cease tracking prematurely. We propose BUSCA, meaning to search', a versatile framework compatible with any online TbD system.

  Multiple existing benchmarks involve tracking and segmenting objects in video. There is little interaction between them due to the use of disparate benchmark datasets and metrics. We propose BURST, a dataset which contains thousands of diverse videos with high-quality object masks. All tasks are evaluated using the same data and comparable metrics, which enables researchers to consider them in unison.

Specifically, with our introduced multi-object representation strategy, a global response map can be accurately generated over frames.

  Tracking Any Object dataset consists of 2,907 high resolution videos, captured in diverse environments, which are half a minute long on average. We ask annotators to label objects that move at any point in the video, and give names to them post factum. Our vocabulary is both significantly larger and qualitatively different from existing tracking datasets.
