SiamMFC: Visual Object Tracking Based on Mainfold Full Convolution Siamese Network.

Visual tracking task is divided into classification and regression tasks, and manifold features are introduced to improve the performance of the tracker. Although the previous anchor-based tracker has achieved superior tracking performance, the anchor-based tracker not only needs to set parameters manually but also ignores the influence of the geometric characteristics of the object on the tracker performance. In this paper, we propose a novel Siamese network framework with ResNet50 as the backbone, which is an anchor-free tracker based on manifold features. The network design is simple and easy to understand, which not only considers the influence of geometric features on the target tracking performance but also reduces the calculation of parameters and improves the target tracking performance. In the experiment, we compared our tracker with the most advanced public benchmarks and obtained a state-of-the-art performance.
