• Abstract: Visual tracking often faces challenges such as invalid targets and decreased performance in low-light conditions when relying solely on RGB image sequences. While incorporating additional modalities like depth and infrared data has proven effective, existing multi-modal imaging platforms are complex and lack real-world applicability. In contrast, near-infrared (NIR) imaging, commonly used in surveillance cameras, can switch between RGB and NIR based on light intensity. However, tracking objects across these heterogeneous modalities poses significant challenges, particularly due to the absence of modality switch signals during tracking. To address these challenges, we propose an adaptive cross-modal object tracking algorithm called Modality-Aware Fusion Network (MAFNet). MAFNet efficiently integrates information from both RGB and NIR modalities using an adaptive weighting mechanism, effectively bridging the appearance gap and enabling a modality-aware target representation. It consists of two key components: an adaptive weighting module and a modality-specific representation module......

  Infrared-visible object detection aims to achieve robust even full-day object detection by fusing the complementary information of infrared and visible images. We propose a Dynamic Adaptive Multispectral Detection Transformer (DAMSDet) to address these two challenges.

  Compared with the traditional RGB object tracking, the addition of the depth modality can effectively solve the target and background interference. Some existing RGBD trackers use the two modalities separately and thus some particularly useful shared information between them is ignored. We propose a novel Dual-fused Modality-aware Tracker (termed DMTracker) which aims to learn informative and discriminative representations of the target objects for robust RGBD tracking.
