Abstract

The location and scale filters in discriminative correlation filter methods are lack of accurate rotation representation capability and updated with fixed intervals, which leads to tracking failure and time-consuming in complex scenarios. In this manuscript, a robust tracker integrating particle filter into correlation filter is presented to cope with sharp rotation and remarkable deformation. The target position and scale factor are firstly estimated from the correlation filter, and then the rotation factor is determined by similarity between candidates and template based on the particle filter. As a result, target variation can be accurately described with position, scale and rotation factor. Moreover, a long-time and short-time update scheme is proposed to solve target template drifting problem. Extensive experimental results conducted on OTB-2013, OTB-2015 and VOT-2016 show that the proposed tracker improves the accuracy and robustness of discriminative correlation filter methods.
