• Abstract: Multi-view aggregation promises to overcome the occlusion and missed detection challenge in multi-object detection and tracking. Recent approaches in multi-view detection and 3D object detection made a huge performance leap by projecting all views to the ground plane and performing the detection in the Bird's Eye View (BEV). In this paper, we investigate if tracking in the BEV can also bring the next performance breakthrough in Multi-Target Multi-Camera (MTMC) tracking. Most current approaches in multi-view tracking perform the detection and tracking task in each view and use graph-based approaches to perform the association of the pedestrian across each view. This spatial association is already solved by detecting each pedestrian once in the BEV, leaving only the problem of temporal association. For the temporal association, we show how to learn strong Re-Identification (re-ID) features for each detection. The results show that early-fusion in the BEV achieves high accuracy for both detection and tracking. EarlyBird outperforms the state-of-the-art methods and improves the current state-of-the-art on Wildtrack by +4.6 MOTA and +5.6 IDF1.

  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.

  We argue that an even more effective approach is to predict people motion over time and infer people's presence in individual frames from these. This enables to enforce consistency both over time and across views of a single temporal frame. We validate our approach on the PETS2009 and WILDTRACK datasets and demonstrate that it outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
