Abstract

Model fusion is an essential strategy to tackle the challenges in visual object tracking. Due to the unpredictable appearance changes of the target and background clusters, a single kind of feature or model cannot fit all situations. In this chapter, we introduce two representative methods based on model fusion. The first one is a traditional method focus on how to combine various handcraft features effectively and the second one is a deep-learning-based method which explores the attention information totally in visual tracking.
