| Summary: | Abstract To improve the deficient tracking ability of fully-convolutional Siamese networks (SiamFC) in complex scenes, an object tracking framework with Siamese network and re-detection mechanism (Siam-RM) is proposed. The mechanism adopts the Siamese instance search tracker (SINT) as the re-detection network. When multiple peaks appear on the response map of SiamFC, a more accurate re-detection network can re-determine the location of the object. Meanwhile, for the sake of adapting to various changes in appearance of the object, this paper employs a generative model to construct the templates of SiamFC. Furthermore, a method of template updating with high confidence is also used to prevent the template from being contaminated. Objective evaluation on the popular online tracking benchmark (OTB) shows that the tracking accuracy and the success rate of the proposed framework can reach 79.8% and 63.8%, respectively. Compared to SiamFC, the results of several representative video sequences demonstrate that our framework has higher accuracy and robustness in scenes with fast motion, occlusion, background clutter, and illumination variations.
