Siamese-RPN-pytorch

Introduction

• Tensorflow Version has been available by my classmates makalo. If you have any question, please feel free to contact us.
• This is a re-implementation for High Performance Visual Tracking with Siamese Region Proposal Network with PyTorch, which is accepted at CVPR2018.
• Code_v1.0 is available for traning, you should change your dataset as VOT format(top-left point and w,h). If there is a break in a sequence, ues "0,0,0,0" to replace the info of this frame.

Visualization for debug

bbox in detection
green -- ground truth which is got by pos anchor shift with reg_target
red -- bbox which is got by pos anchor with reg_pred
black -- bbox with highest score
