I write a python wrapper for KCFcpp, some of the code are modified from http://nicellama.blogspot.com/2015/06/cython-wrapper-between-opencv-mat-in-c.html .

Requirements

  • Python 2.7
  • NumPy
  • Cython
  • OpenCV (both C++ and Python interfaces)

Build

python setup.py build_ext --inplace

or

python setup.py install

Usage

python run.py
python run.py 1
python run.py test.avi

ORIGINAL README:

C++ KCF Tracker

This package includes a C++ class with several tracking methods based on the Kernelized Correlation Filter (KCF) [1, 2].
It also includes an executable to interface with the VOT benchmark.

Algorithms (in this folder)

"KCFC++", command: ./KCF
Description: KCF on HOG features, ported to C++ OpenCV. The original Matlab tracker placed 3rd in VOT 2014.

"KCFLabC++", command: ./KCF lab
Description: KCF on HOG and Lab features, ported to C++ OpenCV. The Lab features are computed by quantizing CIE-Lab colors into 15 centroids, obtained from natural images by k-means.

The CSK tracker [2] is also implemented as a bonus, simply by using raw grayscale as features (the filter becomes single-channel).

Compilation instructions

There are no external dependencies other than OpenCV 3.0.0. Tested on a freshly installed Ubuntu 14.04.

  1. cmake CMakeLists.txt
  2. make

Running instructions

The runtracker.cpp is prepared to be used with the VOT toolkit. The executable "KCF" should be called as:

./KCF [OPTION_1] [OPTION_2] [...]

Options available:

gray - Use raw gray level features as in [1].
hog - Use HOG features as in [2].
lab - Use Lab colorspace features. This option will also enable HOG features by default.
singlescale - Performs single-scale detection, using a variable-size window.
fixed_window - Keep the window size fixed when in single-scale mode (multi-scale always used a fixed window).
show - Show the results in a window.

To include it in your project, without the VOT toolkit you just need to:

// Create the KCFTracker object with one of the available options
KCFTracker tracker(HOG, FIXEDWINDOW, MULTISCALE, LAB);

// Give the first frame and the position of the object to the tracker
tracker.init( Rect(xMin, yMin, width, height), frame );

// Get the position of the object for the new frame
result = tracker.update(frame);
