Abstract: Simple Online and Realtime Tracking (SORT) is a pragmatic approach to multiple object tracking with a focus on simple, effective algorithms. In this paper, we integrate appearance information to improve the performance of SORT. Due to this extension we are able to track objects through longer periods of occlusions, effectively reducing the number of identity switches. In spirit of the original framework we place much of the computational complexity into an offline pre-training stage where we learn a deep association metric on a large-scale person re-identification dataset. During online application, we establish measurement-to-track associations using nearest neighbor queries in visual appearance space. Experimental evaluation shows that our extensions reduce the number of identity switches by 45%, achieving overall competitive performance at high frame rates.

Abstract: A distributed sorting algorithm, inspired by how ant colonies sort their brood is presented for use by robot teams The robots move randomly, do not communicate have no hierarchical organisation, have no global representation can only perceive objects just in front of them, but can distinguish between objects of two or more types with a certain degree of error The probability that they pick up or put down an object is modulated as a function of how many of the same objects they have met in the recent past This generates a positive feed-back that is sufficient to coordinate the robots' activity, resulting in their sorting the objects into common clusters While less efficient than a hierarchically controlled sorting, this decentralised organisation offers the advantages of simplicity, flexibility and robustness
