Abstract EN
Object tracking with robust scale estimation is a challenging task in computer vision.
This paper presents a novel tracking algorithm that learns the translation and scale filters with a complementary scheme.
The translation filter is constructed using the ridge regression and multidimensional features.
A robust scale filter is constructed by the bidirectional scale estimation, including the forward scale and backward scale.
Firstly, we learn the scale filter using the forward tracking information.
Then the forward scale and backward scale can be estimated using the respective scale filter.
Secondly, a conservative strategy is adopted to compromise the forward and backward scales.
Finally, the scale filter is updated based on the final scale estimation.
It is effective to update scale filter since the stable scale estimation can improve the performance of scale filter.
To reveal the effectiveness of our tracker, experiments are performed on 32 sequences with significant scale variation and on the benchmark dataset with 50 challenging videos.
Our results show that the proposed tracker outperforms several state-of-the-art trackers in terms of robustness and accuracy.
