Weak-structure-aware visual object tracking with bottom-up and top-down context exploration

作者:

Highlights:

• A weak-structure-aware solution is proposed for part-based object tracking.

• Two sets of parts are combined complementarily to find the object location and scale adaptively.

• A bottom-up procedure is introduced to explore pixel-level context for consistent tracking.

• A top-down procedure is devised to explore object-level context for effective model support.

• The proposed method is tested in extensive experiments to demonstrate its excellent performance.
