Unveiling the dense correspondence under the haze layer remains a challenging task, since the scattering effects result in less distinctive image features. Contrarily, dehazing is often confused by the airlightalbedo ambiguity which cannot be resolved independently at each pixel. In this paper, we introduce a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) that simultaneously estimates a disparity and clear image from a hazy stereo image pair. Both tasks are synergistically formulated by fusing depth information from the matching cost and haze transmission. To learn the optimal fusion of depth-related features, we present a novel encoderdecoder architecture that extends the core idea of attention mechanism to the simultaneous stereo matching and dehazing. As a result, our method estimates high-quality disparity for the stereo images in scattering media, and produces appearance images with enhanced visibility. Finally, we further propose an effec

Propagation and association tasks in Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) play a pivotal role in accurately linking the trajectories of moving objects. Recently, modern deep learning models have been addressing these tasks by introducing fragmented solutions for each different problem such as appearance modeling, motion modeling, and object associations. To bring unification in the MOT task, we introduce a pixel-guided approach to efficiently build the joint-detection and tracking framework for multi-object tracking. Specifically, the up-sampled multi-scale features from consecutive frames are queued to detect the object locations by using a transformer–decoder, and per-pixel distributions are utilized to compute the association matrix according to object queries. Additionally, we introduce a long-term appearance association on track features to learn the long-term association of tracks against detections to compute the similarity matrix. Finally, a similarity matrix is jointly integrated with the Byte-Tracker resulting in a state-of-the-art MOT performance. The experiments with the standard MOT15 and MOT17 benchmarks show that our approach achieves significant tracking performance.
