Thermal infrared pedestrian tracking using joint siamese network and exemplar prediction model

Liying Zheng, Shuo Zhao, Yanbo Zhang, Lei Yu

Abstract: Highlights•A CNN-based exemplar prediction model is designed to enhance the original Siam-RPN.•Both the temporal and spatial information around an object are introduced to the prediction model.•The proposed tracker performs better than the existing trackers on the PTB-TIR benchmark.•The proposed tracker runs in real-time.
