Improvisation of Yolov4 Algorithm for Multiple Object Tracking Using Kalman Filtering Hungarian Method
摘要
Multiple object tracking (MOT) is a significant component in vision-based navigation and surveillance systems. This study presents a practical integration of YOLOv4 for object detection, Kalman filters for motion prediction, and the Hungarian algorithm for object association to build a robust MOT framework. The system effectively handles occlusions and object re-identification by maintaining consistent object IDs across video frames. Evaluation on COCO-derived video sequences demonstrates improved ID stability and accuracy compared to YOLOv4 alone, with a trade-off in processing speed. While the approach lacks architectural novelty, it highlights the efficiency of combining well-established algorithms for real-time applications. Future work includes optimizing speed and benchmarking with more advanced trackers such as DeepSORT and FairMOT.
