TrackJectory

Tracking and Trajectory Prediction

Components Implemented :-

1. Siamese Tracker for single object (online) visual tracking. Provided the template image, SiamRPN++ identify's and track's the template across video frames.
   
2. FairMOT for one shot multi-object detection and tracking. (FairMOT: Multi-Object Tracking)
3. Social GCN for trajectory forecasting. FairMOT is used to predict and track multiple objects across frames. After extracting the tracked objects, those outputs are furnished to Social GCN to forecast the trajectories.

Installation and Running

Installation

1. Run following to clone into local system https://github.com/Sai-Venky/Trackjectory.git.
2. Create conda environment conda create --name track python=3.6 and activate it conda activate track.
3. Run pip install -r requirements.txt.
4. Run pip install lap cython-bbox
5. Setup DCNv2 by going into cd DCNV2 and running sh ./make.sh.

Running - Training and Testing

All configurable values with details on their significance are in utils/config.py. For testing, pre-trained models can be downloaded from
Siam RPN++
FairMOT DLA-34

Single Object Tracking :-
Training - python src/siam_train.py
Testing - python src/siam_track.py

Multi Object Tracking :-
Training - python src/mot_train.py
Testing - python src/mot_track.py

Trajectory Forcasting :-
Training - python src/trajectory_train.py
Testing - python src/trajectory_test.py

Dataset

The dataset is created from Kabaddi player videos curated from multiple online platforms. (https://youtu.be/HOfY9g05Sv4) This was selected since this sport depicts a lot of movements (feints) and is challenging for forcasting trajectory correctly.

In order to train with a custom dataset, change the config value of multi_images_dataset, single_track_dataset, trajectory_dataset in utils/config.py. The samples of how data should be constructed is provided in the data folder.

Directory Layout

The directory structure is as follows :-

• dataset : contains the necessary files needed for loading the Siamese, MOT and Trajectory forcasting datasets along with transformation functions.
  • mot_dataset : training/validation and testing base class which instantiates the fairmot dataset and transforms the raw data with affine transformation.
  • siam_dataset : training/validation base class which instantiates the siamese dataset and returns the template with target frame.
  • trajectory_dataset : training/validation base class which instantiates the trajectory dataset after constructing the graph based on tracked objects and frame sequences.
  • util : helper functions for preprocessing the image.
• models : this contains the base models for TrackJectory with all of its constituent methods.
  • gcn : contains the social graph cnn model with time extrapolator cnn.
  • pose_dla_dcn : contains the dla-34 model with deformable convolutions initialization.
  • single_track : contains the siam rpn++ model (resnet) with depthwise correlation.
  • loss : contains the mot, bivariate and L1 loss functions.
• utils : this contains the utility methods for TrackJectory.
  • config : contains the configuration options.
  • scheduler : contains the scheduler options for adjusting learning rate dynamically.
  • utils : contains the load, save model functions for TrackJectory.

  • basetrack : the base class for multi object tracking.
  • matching : contains the methods needed for fusing the iou, embedding and Kalman Filter (KF) outputs.
  • multitracker : implementation of Joint Detection and Embedding (JDE) tracker for performing multi object tracking and association.
  • singletracker : implementation of a SiamRPN++ tracker for performing single object tracking.
• tracking_utils : this contains the utils needed for the multi object tracker.
  • kalman_filter : contains the methods for predicting, updating KF values and computing gating distance between KF outputs and embedding distance.
  • log : logger functions.
  • timer : timer functions.
  • visualization : methods for visualizing the multiple outputs predicted by JDE tracker.
• mot_track : main file performing tasks for tracking multiple objects and creating the inputs for trajectory forcasting.
• mot_train : main file performing tasks for training FairMOT.
• siam_track : main file performing tasks for tracking a single object.
• siam_train : main file performing tasks for training SiamRPN++.
• trajectory_test : main file performing tasks for testing Social GCN and visualization functions for forming the trajectories based on outputs.
