• Abstract summary: We propose an insertable Knowledge Unification Network, termed iKUN, to enable communication with off-the-shelf trackers. To improve the localization accuracy, we present a neural version of Kalman filter (NKF) to dynamically adjust process noise. We also contribute a more challenging dataset, Refer-Dance, by extending public DanceTrack dataset with motion and dressing descriptions.

• Abstract: Referring multi-object tracking (RMOT) aims to track multiple objects based on input textual descriptions. Previous works realize it by simply integrating an extra textual module into the multi-object tracker. However, they typically need to retrain the entire framework and have difficulties in optimization. In this work, we propose an insertable Knowledge Unification Network, termed iKUN, to enable communication with off-the-shelf trackers in a plug-and-play manner. Concretely, a knowledge unification module (KUM) is designed to adaptively extract visual features based on textual guidance. Meanwhile, to improve the localization accuracy, we present a neural version of Kalman filter (NKF) to dynamically adjust process noise and observation noise based on the current motion status. Moreover, to address the problem of open-set long-tail distribution of textual descriptions, a test-time similarity calibration method is proposed to refine the confidence score with pseudo frequency. Extensive experiments on Refer-KITTI dataset verify the effectiveness of our framework. Finally, to speed up the development of RMOT, we also contribute a more challenging dataset, Refer-Dance, by extending public DanceTrack dataset with motion and dressing descriptions. The codes and dataset are available at https://github.com/dyhBUPT/iKUN.

  Open-vocabulary Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) aims to generalize trackers to novel categories not in the training set. We present a unified framework that jointly considers semantics, location, and appearance priors in the early steps of association. Our method eliminates complex post-processings for fusing different cues and boosts the association performance significantly for large-scale open-vocabulary tracking.

  We focus on the recently introduced text-motion retrieval which aim to search for sequences that are most relevant to a natural motion description. Despite recent efforts to explore these promising avenues, a primary challenge remains the insufficient data available to train robust text-motion models. We propose to investigate joint-dataset learning - where we train on multiple text-motion datasets simultaneously. We also introduce a transformer-based motion encoder, called MoT++, which employs the specified-temporal attention to process sequences of skeleton data.

We generate dynamic modality-aware filters with two independent networks. The visible and thermal filters will be used to conduct a dynamic convolutional operation on their corresponding input feature maps respectively. To address issues caused by heavy occlusion, fast motion, and out-of-view, we propose to conduct a joint local and global search by exploiting a new direction-aware target-driven attention mechanism.
