| Summary: | Abstract Visual object tracking has been drawing increasing attention in recent years, as a fundamental task in computer vision. To extend the range of tracking applications, researchers have been introducing information from multiple modalities to handle specific scenes, with promising research prospects for emerging methods and benchmarks. To provide a thorough review of multi-modal tracking, different aspects of multi-modal tracking algorithms are summarized under a unified taxonomy, with specific focus on visible-depth (RGB-D) and visible-thermal (RGB-T) tracking. Subsequently, a detailed description of the related benchmarks and challenges is provided. Extensive experiments were conducted to analyze the effectiveness of trackers on five datasets: PTB, VOT19-RGBD, GTOT, RGBT234, and VOT19-RGBT. Finally, various future directions, including model design and dataset construction, are discussed from different perspectives for further research. |
