Target Tracking System Constructed by ELM-AE and Transfer Representation Learning
Abstract
In the target tracking algorithm, the feature model’s ability to quickly learn image features and the ability to adapt to changes in target features during tracking has always been one of the main research directions of target tracking algorithms. Especially for discriminative target trackers based on image block learning, these two points have become decisive factors affecting the efficiency and robustness of the tracker. However, the performance of most existing similar algorithms on these two abilities cannot achieve satisfactory results. To solve this problem, an efficient and robust feature model is proposed. The feature model first uses extreme learning machine autoencoder (ELM-AE) to quickly perform random feature mapping on complex image features of the target and background image blocks, and then uses the transfer learning ability of transfer representation learning (TRL) to improve the adaptability of random feature space. The feature model is named transfer representation learning with ELM-AE (TRL-ELM-AE). Compared with original complex image features, this model can provide the classifier with more compact and expressive shared features, so that the classifier can learn and classify more quickly and efficiently. In addition, in the target tracking process, the target and background usually change continuously over time. Although the feature migration capability of TRL can already adapt to this, in order to further improve the robustness of the tracker, a strategy of dynamically updating training samples is adopted. Through a large number of experimental and analysis results on the 11 target tracking challenge scenarios proposed by OTB, it is proven that the proposed target tracker has significant advantages over the existing target tracker.
