• Abstract: Point tracking is a fundamental problem in computer vision with numerous applications in AR and robotics. A common failure mode in long-term point tracking occurs when the predicted point leaves the object it belongs to and lands on the background or another object. We identify this as the failure to correctly capture objectness properties in learning to track. To address this limitation of prior work, we propose a novel objectness regularization approach that guides points to be aware of object priors by forcing them to stay inside the the boundaries of object instances. By capturing objectness cues at training time, we avoid the need to compute object masks during testing. In addition, we leverage contextual attention to enhance the feature representation for capturing objectness at the feature level more effectively. As a result, our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on three point tracking benchmarks, and we further validate the effectiveness of our components via ablation studies.

  We tackle semi-supervised object detection based on motion cues. Recent results suggest that motion-based clustering methods can be used to pseudo-label instances of moving objects. We re-think this approach and suggest that both, object detection, as well as motion-inspired pseudo-labeling, can be tackled in a data-driven manner.

  We propose an Object Preserving Siamese Network (OPSNet), which can significantly maintain object integrity and boost tracking performance. First, the object highlighting module enhances the object-aware features and extracts discriminative features from template and search area. Then, the object-preserved sampling selects object candidates to obtain object-preserved search area seeds and drop the background points that contribute less to tracking. Finally, the object localization network precisely locates 3D BBoxes based on the object-preserved search area seeds.
