Abstract

Spatial regularization can effectively solve the unwanted boundary effect of discriminative correlation filters (DCF). However, the predefined mask is independent of the feature, which limits the performance improvement. In this paper, we take the mask as a variable that plays the same role as the filter, and an attention regularization correlation filter (ARCF) is proposed for visual tracking. Especially, the mask is no longer a binary but a real value between 0 and 1, used as the weight of the corresponding feature. Additionally, the temporal coherence is also considered when the filter and the mask are simultaneously optimizing via ADMM algorithm, so the filter can fit the variation of the target in the temporal domain. Extensive experiments on the OTB100 database prove that our algorithm is much better than the traditional SRDCF algorithm both in the performance and speed.
