A multi-object tracking framework introduces a reinforcement learning-based key frame extraction module for adaptive video segmentation and an intra-frame feature fusion module using spatio-temporal graph learning. This method achieved 68.6 HOTA on the MOT17 public dataset, representing a 1.6 point increase over the SUSHI baseline and also improved IDF1 by 2.3 points while reducing identity switches.

Key insights

  • Adaptive video segmentation, learned through Q-learning, effectively combines the advantages of both short-term and long-term trajectories, significantly mitigating identity loss during occlusions.
  • Graph Convolutional Networks can effectively capture complex contextual information and learn adaptive relationship weights between objects, which is crucial for distinguishing occluded or visually similar targets.
  • Explicitly modeling and fusing intra-frame spatial relationships among objects enhances individual target distinguishability, improving association accuracy in challenging scenarios.
