摘要

Motion prediction is a crucial component of multi-object tracking algorithms. Its role is to map the positional information of targets at different time instances to the current moment, establishing correlations in the spatial domain among targets observed at different time points. However, we contend that the estimated target trajectory information in current multi-object tracking algorithms becomes unreliable when targets are obscured and undergo deformation, especially in dim and crowded scenarios. In response to this challenge, we propose the Multi-Head Trajectory Prediction (MHTP) module, a Kalman filtering-based module tailored for lost tracks. By integrating historical motion information, the MHTP module predicts potential track positions in subsequent association processes, enhancing the robustness of track position associations. Additionally, we introduce a distance metric, Multiple Appearance Distance (MAD), combining multi-head predicted positions with appearance information. Leveraging MHTP and MAD, we enhance the data association framework, strengthening the robustness of data associations in target tracking. The approach achieves high accuracy on the test sets of the multi-object tracking datasets MOT17 (HOTA: 66.0%) and MOT20 (HOTA: 63.9%), surpassing the recent state-of-the-art methods.
