摘要:

由于研究界的强烈兴趣以及目标检测方法的持续改进,多目标跟踪(MOT)方法近期在性能上取得了显著提升。大多数跟踪方法遵循基于检测的跟踪(TBD)范式,盲目信任传入的检测结果,而对其相关的定位不确定性毫无感知。这种不确定性意识的缺乏在安全关键任务(如自动驾驶)中构成问题,因为错误检测可能传播到包括MOT在内的下游任务,从而使乘客面临风险。虽然已有概率目标检测方面的工作能够预测框周围的定位不确定性,但在自动驾驶的2D MOT中,尚无工作研究这些估计是否足够有意义,能够在目标跟踪中被有效利用。我们提出了UncertaintyTrack,这是一组可应用于多个TBD跟踪器的扩展,用于考虑来自概率目标检测器的定位不确定性估计。在Berkeley Deep Drive MOT数据集上的实验表明,我们的方法与信息丰富的不确定性估计相结合,将ID切换次数减少了约19%,并将mMOTA提高了2-3%。源代码可在https://github.com/TRAILab/UncertaintyTrack获取。

英文摘要:

Multi-object tracking (MOT) methods have seen a significant boost in performance recently, due to strong interest from the research community and steadily improving object detection methods. The majority of tracking methods follow the tracking-by-detection (TBD) paradigm, blindly trust the incoming detections with no sense of their associated localization uncertainty. This lack of uncertainty awareness poses a problem in safety-critical tasks such as autonomous driving where passengers could be put at risk due to erroneous detections that have propagated to downstream tasks, including MOT. While there are existing works in probabilistic object detection that predict the localization uncertainty around the boxes, no work in 2D MOT for autonomous driving has studied whether these estimates are meaningful enough to be leveraged effectively in object tracking. We introduce UncertaintyTrack, a collection of extensions that can be applied to multiple TBD trackers to account for localization uncertainty estimates from probabilistic object detectors. Experiments on the Berkeley Deep Drive MOT dataset show that the combination of our method and informative uncertainty estimates reduces the number of ID switches by around 19\% and improves mMOTA by 2-3%.
