Real-time Implementation of YOLO+JPDA for Small Scale UAV Multiple Object Tracking

Abstract

This paper describes the development of a real-time multiple object detection and tracking system for a small scale UAV. The YOLO deep learning visual object detection algorithm and JPDA multiple target detection algorithm, were selected and implemented. The theory and implementation details of these algorithms are presented. The performance analysis of the system is done on both public dataset and aerial videos taken by UAV.
