arXiv:2606. 23604v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The tracking-by-detection paradigm in multi-object tracking (MOT) typically relies on static appearance descriptors to complement motion estimation.
RA‑SOD is a new RGB‑Thermal salient object detection framework that explicitly models the reliability of each modality. It introduces a reliability‑conditioned representation, an uncertainty‑guided dual‑stream refinement, and a pixel‑wise modality competition mechanism to adaptively compensate degraded features and suppress unreliable evidence. Experiments on four benchmarks show that RA‑SOD achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance and remains robust under severe modality degradation.
arXiv:2606. 26455v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: RGB-Event tracking improves localization robustness by fusing RGB appearance textures and dense temporal motion cues from event sensors.
ESMTrack is a fully end‑to‑end self‑supervised RGB‑T tracking framework that eliminates the need for costly modality‑aligned bounding boxes or offline pseudo‑label generation. It learns discriminative, temporally consistent representations using a grounding triplet loss on the initial annotated frame and a cross‑frame temporal triplet loss on unlabeled search frames, with reliable samples selected via forward‑backward consistency. A three‑branch architecture (fusion, RGB, thermal) and a modality decoupling mechanism mitigate modality dominance bias, enabling competitive state‑of‑the‑art performance, strong cross‑dataset generalization, and real‑time inference on five RGB‑T benchmarks.
arXiv:2606. 01694v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Thermal pedestrian MOT remains challenging because weak appearance cues and frequent detection interruptions cause severe trajectory fragmentation.
arXiv:2606. 14094v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conventional RGB cameras have been widely used in multi-object tracking due to their ability to capture rich appearance and semantic information.
