Abstract

In recent years, the correlation filter (CF) has excellent accuracy and speed in the field of visual object tracking. Training samples for CF are usually generated by circular shifts. Although such training samples combined with Fourier transform can be effective in reducing computational effort. They also give rise to boundary effects. Spatial regularization can effectively suppress the boundary effect, but the learning rate are fixed. They cannot be adaptively adjusted to match environmental changes, and the background information is not suppressed. In this paper, we propose a new Correlation filter model, namely Adaptive Learning Rate and Spatial Regularization Background Perception Filter for Visual Tracking (SRAL). Firstly, the SRAL uses real background information as negative samples to train the filter model. Secondly, we use the Average Peak to Correlation Energy (APCE) and the response value error between the two frames to adjust the learning rate together. In addition, the introduction of the regular term destroys the closed solution of CF, and this problem can be effectively solved by the use of the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). Extensive experimental evaluations on three large tracking benchmarks are performed, which demonstrate the good performance of the proposed method over some of the state-of-the-art trackers.
