Non-negative Subspace Representation Learning Scheme for Correlation Filter Based Tracking

Discriminative correlation filter (DCF) based tracking methods have achieved great success recently. However, the temporal learning scheme in the current paradigm is of a linear recursion form determined by a fixed learning rate which can not adaptively feedback appearance variations. In this paper, we propose a unified non-negative subspace representation constrained leaning scheme for DCF. The subspace is constructed by several templates with auxiliary memory mechanisms. Then the current template is projected onto the subspace to find the non-negative representation and to determine the corresponding template weights. Our learning scheme enables efficient combination of correlation filter and subspace structure. The experimental results on OTB50 demonstrate the effectiveness of our learning formulation.
