TrackingOptimization : Différence entre versions

Version actuelle en date du 18 janvier 2018 à 15:53

The project consists in developing a framework for the systematic validation of tracking improvements.

Methodology and Tasks

1. choosing an optimization approach to optimize tracking parameters based on tracking annotations (ie tracker training)
2. designing a cross-validation framework on a set of annotation videos, training on each video in turn and evaluating the tracking performance on the rest
3. testing the new framework with a few variations of an existing open source tracker (time permitting)
