Abstract
Speed skating serves as a significant application domain for multiobject tracking (MOT), presenting unique challenges such as frequent occlusion, highly similar appearances, and motion blur. To address these challenges, this paper constructs an MOT dataset called SKT-MOT for speed skating and analyzes the shortcomings of existing datasets and methods. Accordingly, we propose a dynamic MOT method called DyTracker. The method builds upon the DeepSORT baseline and enhances three key modules. At the global level, we design the track dynamic management (TDM) algorithm. In the motion branch, a novel metric is proposed to evaluate occlusion and Kalman filter dynamic update (KFDU) is implemented. In the appearance branch, we account for the difference in human posture and propose the feature dynamic selection and updating (FDSU) strategy. This makes our DyTracker flexible and efficient to achieve a multiobject tracking accuracy (MOTA) of 93.70% and identification F1 (IDF1) score of 92.39% on SKT-MOT, which is a significant advantage over existing SOTA methods. To validate the generalization of our proposed module, two dynamic update modules are inserted into other methods and validated on the public dataset MOT17, and the accuracy is generally improved by 0.2%–0.6%.
