Multi-Cue Correlation Tracker

Code for tracker in the paper Multi-Cue Correlation Filters for Robust Visual Tracking, by Ning Wang, Wengang Zhou et. al - to appear in CVPR 2018.

In this work, we propose to utilize multiple weak experts for online tracking. Our efficient framework achieves state-of-the-art performance just using standard DCFs !

Prerequisites

For the MCCT-H (Hand-crafted features only) tracker, just start Matlab and run the runTracker.m. To run the MCCT tracker with deep features, please download the VGG-19 and compile the Matconvnet following the description in README (in MCCT/model/).

• The VGG-19 model is available at http://www.vlfeat.org/matconvnet/pretrained/.
• The Matconvnet is available at https://github.com/vlfeat/matconvnet.
• The code is mostly in MATLAB, except the workhorse of fhog.m, which is written in C and comes from Piotr Dollar toolbox http://vision.ucsd.edu/~pdollar/toolbox
• gradientMex and mexResize have been compiled and tested for Ubuntu and Windows 8 (64 bit). You can easily recompile the sources in case of need.
