Correlation Filters with Weighted Convolution Responses_(ICCV2017W)

By Zhiqun He, Yingruo Fan, Junfei Zhuang, Yuan Dong, Hongliang Bai

Introduction

We derive a continuous convolution operator based tracker which fully exploits the discriminative power in the CNN feature representations. In our work, we normalize each individual feature extracted from different layers of the deep pretrained CNN first, and after that, the weighted convolution responses from each feature block are summed to produce the final confidence score. By this weighted sum operation, the empirical evaluations demonstrate clear improvements by our proposed tracker based on the Efficient Convolu- tion Operators Tracker (ECO).

Requirements

1、Download the CFWCR code and the pretrained models

git clone https://github.com/he010103/CFWCR.git
cd ./feature_extraction/networks
wget http://www.vlfeat.org/matconvnet/models/imagenet-vgg-m-2048.mat. 
mv  imagenet-vgg-m-2048.mat imagenet-vgg-m-2048-cut.mat

2、Downloading MatConvNet and compile it

cd ./external_libs
git clone https://github.com/vlfeat/matconvnet.git

More install details

3、Install all the dependencies

Fill the cuda(>=7.5) path in the install.m first.

run install.m

4*、Setting export CUDA_CACHE_MAXSIZE=8000000000" in the ./~bash_profile so that gpuDevice(1) will take fewer time.

Demo

1、 run demo_CFWCR.m()

VOT

2、[VOT Intergration] ./vot2017_trax
