一种顾及运动约束的3D视觉多目标跟踪算法

A 3D Visual MOT Algorithm Considering Motion Constraints

  • 摘要: 多目标跟踪(Multiple Object Tracking,MOT)在智能无人系统中发挥着关键作用,可为自主无人系统提供准确可靠的目标感知信息。其中,三维(Three Dimensional,3D)视觉多目标跟踪以其空间感知能力强、传感器成本低廉等优点脱颖而出。然而现有的3D视觉多目标跟踪算法通常基于滤波框架实现,且仅利用检测边界框更新目标运动状态,其在复杂场景下的多目标跟踪性能易受目标检测的不确定性影响。为此,提出了一种顾及运动约束的3D视觉多目标跟踪算法。在目标数据关联方面,建立目标六自由度运动模型,精准预测目标轨迹以引导目标检测边界框匹配,减少目标混淆和错误关联;在目标运动轨迹优化方面,将载体车辆导航中的车辆运动约束拓展至目标对象,建立目标轨迹状态的零速约束(Zero Velocity Update,ZUPT)与非完整性约束(Non-holonomic Constraint,NHC),并结合目标运动预测轨迹和检测边界框信息,构建基于滑动窗口的因子图优化模型,实现多目标运动状态的联合精确估计,提升多目标轨迹预测与跟踪精度。经实验验证,算法在多目标跟踪准确度(Multiple Object Tracking Accuracy,MOTA)上相较AB3D MOT与PC3TMOT提升了15.69%与12.96%、在多目标跟踪精度(Multiple Object Tracking Precision,MOTP)上相较PC3T MOT提升了0.96%,增强了系统在复杂环境下的位姿估计精度与连续性,实现了稳健的3D多目标跟踪性能。

     

    Abstract: Objectives: Multiple object tracking (MOT) plays a key role in intelligent unmanned system, providing accurate and reliable object perception information for autonomous unmanned systems. Among them, three dimensional (3D) visual MOT stands out due to its strong environmental perception ability and low sensor cost. However, the existing 3D visual MOT algorithm is usually implemented based on the filtering framework, and only uses the detection boundary box to update the object motion state, so its MOT performance in complex scenes is vulnerable to the uncertainty of object detection. Therefore, a 3D visual MOT algorithm considering motion constraints is proposed. Methods: In the aspect of object data association, a six degree of freedom object motion model is established to accurately predict the object trajectory to guide the object detection boundary box matching and reduce object confusion and false association. In the aspect of object trajectory optimization, the vehicle motion constraints in vehicle navigation are extended to the object, and the zero velocity update (ZUPT) and non-holonomic constraint (NHC) of the object trajectory state are established. Combined with the object motion prediction trajectory and the detection boundary box information, the factor graph optimization model based on sliding window is constructed, which realizes the joint accurate estimation of the multi-object motion state and improves the prediction and tracking accuracy of the multi-object trajectory. Results: The experimental results show that the algorithm is 15.69% and 12.96% higher than AB3D MOT and PC3T MOT on multiple object tracking accuracy (MOTA), and 0.96% higher than PC3T MOT on multiple object tracking precision (MOTP). Conclusions: The algorithm enhances the accuracy and continuity of pose estimation in complex 3D environment, and achieves robust MOT performance.
