Robust Person Tracking Algorithm Based on Convolutional Neural Network for Indoor Video Surveillance Systems

In this paper, we present an algorithm for multi person tracking in indoor surveillance systems based on tracking-by-detection approach. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for detection and tracking both are used. CNN Yolov3 has been utilized as detector. Person features extraction is performed based on modified CNN ResNet. Proposed architecture includes 29 convolutional and one fully connected layer. Hungarian algorithm is applied for objects association. After that object visibility in the frame is determined based on CNN and color features. For algorithm evaluation prepared videos that was labeled and tested using MOT evaluation metric. The proposed algorithm efficiency is illustrated and confirmed by our experimental results
