The visual object tracking problem seeks to track an arbitrary object in a video, and many deep convolutional neural network-based algorithms have achieved significant performance improvements in recent years. However, most of them do not guarantee real-time operation due to the large computation overhead for deep feature extraction. This paper presents a single-crop visual object tracking algorithm based on a fully convolutional Siamese network (SiamFC). The proposed algorithm significantly reduces the computation burden by extracting multiple scale feature maps from a single image crop. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm demonstrates superior speed performance in comparison with that of SiamFC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
