This paper proposes a very fast and robust multi-people tracking algorithm suitable for mobile platforms equipped with a RGB-D sensor. Our approach features a novel depth-based sub-clustering method explicitly designed for detecting people within groups or near the background and a three-term joint likelihood for limiting drifts and ID switches. Moreover, an online learned appearance classifier is proposed, that robustly specializes on a track while using the other detections as negative examples. Tests have been performed with data acquired from a mobile robot in indoor environments and on a publicly available dataset acquired with three RGB-D sensors and results have been evaluated with the CLEAR MOT metrics. Our method reaches near state of the art performance and very high frame rates in our distributed ROS-based CPU implementation.

Abstract

This paper proposes a very fast and robust multi-people tracking algorithm suitable for mobile platforms equipped with a RGB-D sensor. Our approach features a novel depth-based sub-clustering method explicitly designed for detecting people within groups or near the background and a three-term joint likelihood for limiting drifts and ID switches. Moreover, an online learned appearance classifier is proposed, that robustly specializes on a track while using the other detections as negative examples. Tests have been performed with data acquired from a mobile robot in indoor environments and on a publicly available dataset acquired with three RGB-D sensors and results have been evaluated with the CLEAR MOT metrics. Our method reaches near state of the art performance and very high frame rates in our distributed ROS-based CPU implementation.
