DeepSORT tracking

At CVPR 2017, Nicolai Wojke, Alex Bewley, and Dietrich Paulus came up with DeepSORT tracking in their paper titled Simple Online and Real-Time Tracking with a Deep Association Metric. The details of the paper can be found at https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.07402.

DeepSORT is an extension of SORT and integrates appearance information within the bounding box using a CNN trained to discriminate pedestrians. Details of the tracking implementation can be found at https://github.com/nwojke/deep_sort.

The details of the architecture are outlined as follows:

• The tracking scenario is defined on an eight-dimensional state space (u, v, γ, h, x, y, γ, h), where (u, v) is the bounding box center location, γ is the aspect ratio, and h is ...
