MoD2T:Model-Data-Driven Motion-Static Object Tracking Method

The domain of Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) is of paramount significance within the realm of video analysis. However, both traditional methodologies and deep learning-based approaches within this domain exhibit inherent limitations. Deep learning methods driven exclusively by data exhibit challenges in accurately discerning the motion states of objects, while traditional methods relying on comprehensive mathematical models may suffer from suboptimal tracking precision. To address these challenges, we introduce the Model-Data-Driven Motion-Static Object Tracking Method (MoD2T). We propose a novel architecture that adeptly amalgamates traditional mathematical modeling with deep learning-based MOT frameworks, thereby effectively mitigating the limitations associated with sole reliance on established methodologies or advanced deep learning techniques. MoD2T's fusion of mathematical modeling and deep learning augments the precision of object motion determination, consequently enhancing tracking accuracy. Our empirical experiments robustly substantiate MoD2T's efficacy across a diverse array of scenarios, including UAV aerial surveillance and street-level tracking. To assess MoD2T's proficiency in discerning object motion states, we introduce MVF1 metric. This novel performance metric is designed to measure the accuracy of motion state classification, providing a comprehensive evaluation of MoD2T's performance. Meticulous experiments substantiate the rationale behind MVF1's formulation. To provide a comprehensive assessment of MoD2T's performance, we meticulously annotate diverse datasets and subject MoD2T to rigorous testing. The achieved MVF1 scores, which measure the accuracy of motion state classification, are particularly noteworthy in scenarios marked by minimal or mild camera motion, with values of 0.774 on the KITTI dataset, 0.521 on MOT17, and 0.827 on UAVDT.
