基于改进KCF的多目标人员检测与动态跟踪方法

Multi object personnel detection and dynamic tracking method based on improved KCF

针对煤矿巷道光照不足、目标尺度变化剧烈、目标容易被遮挡和矿灯干扰等因素,导致对于井下的目标检测和跟踪存在成功率和准确度低的问题,提出一种基于改进核相关滤波(KCF)算法的多目标人员检测与动态跟踪方法,为避免井下复杂环境中由于光照不均引起检测失败,在改进的KCF算法中引入SSD检测算法,以提升对多目标人员检测能力。(1)读取待跟踪视频序列,使用经过井下数据集训练后的SSD算法检测图像中的目标,若没有发现目标则继续读取下一帧。(2)将检测到的目标放入跟踪器中,对图像进行预处理,通过比较将所有的检测框按照设定的阈值进行打分,并根据分值从高到低依次排列,高分的检测结果直接输出,低分的检测结果用于滤除不良信息,以提升检测速度。(3)通过KCF跟踪预测目标M帧后清空跟踪器,再重新进行目标检测。通过检测算法和跟踪算法的叠加,保证对目标的持续跟踪能力。实验结果表明:(1)该方法最后的损失值稳定在1.675附近,检测结果较为稳定。(2)经过训练后的SSD算法识别精度较训练前的SSD算法识别精度提高了52.7%。(3)该方法对矿井人员检测成功率、跟踪准确率分别为87.9%,88.9%,均高于其他4种算法(KCF、CSRT、TLD及MIL)的检测成功率、跟踪准确率。(4)该方法在重叠阈值较低时具有较高成功率,直至重叠阈值大于0.8时,成功率大幅下降,这是因为矿井中环境多样,想要完全符合标注的框有一定难度。实际应用结果表明:在井下煤矿巷道光照不足、目标尺度变化剧烈、容易被遮挡和受矿灯干扰等复杂环境中,该方法具有较高的适用性。

Factors such as insufficient illumination in coal mine roadways,drastic changes in object scale,easy obstruction of objects,and interference from mining lights lead to low success rate and accuracy in underground object detection and tracking.In order to solve the above problems,a multi object personnel detection and dynamic tracking method based on improved kernel correlation filter(KCF)algorithm is proposed.The method can avoid detection failure due to uneven lighting in complex underground environments.The SSD detection algorithm is introduced into the improved KCF algorithm to enhance the capability to detect multiple object personnel.①The method reads the video sequence to be tracked,uses the SSD algorithm trained on the underground dataset to detect the object in the image.The method continues reading the next frame if no object is found.②The method places the detected object into the tracker,preprocesses the image,scores all detection boxes according to the set threshold through comparison,and arranges them in descending order based on the score.The high score detection results are directly output,while the low score detection results are used to filter out bad information to improve detection speed.③The method clears the tracker after tracking and predicting object M frames through KCF,and then performs object detection again.By combining detection and tracking algorithms,the continuous tracking capability of the object is ensured.The experimental results show the following points.①The final loss value of this method is stable around 1.675,and the detection results are relatively stable.②The SSD recognition precision after training has improved by 52.7%compared to the SSD recognition precision before training.③The detection success rate and tracking accuracy of this method for mine personnel are 87.9%and 88.9%,respectively,which are higher than the detection success rate and tracking accuracy of the other four algorithms(KCF,CSRT,TLD,MIL).④This method has a high success rate when the overlap threshold is low,and until the overlap threshold is greater than 0.8,the success rate significantly decreases.This is because the environment in the mine is diverse,and it is difficult to fully match the labeled boxes.The practical application results show that this method has high applicability in complex environments such as insufficient lighting in underground coal mine roadways,drastic changes in object scale,easy obstruction,and interference from mining lights.
