Boundary effect is an important factor which restricts the performance of correlation filter. At present
most methods simply use the prior knowledge
such as inverse Gaussian distribution
preset masks
etc.
or segment the foreground target to constrain solving as the regularization term
which do not consider characteristics of the target in the spatial and temporal domain. To address this problem
this paper proposes a learning attention regularized correlation filter for visual tracking. The method uses the attention mechanism to learn the specific spatial weight of the target
which can adapt to the variations of target in the spatial domain by considering the spatial distribution characteristics of the target. At the same time
this paper uses the continuity of the target in the temporal domain. The filter is indirectly adjusted by constraining the attention weight matrix. Finally
the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is employed to iteratively optimize the model. We conduct extensive experiments on the proposed method in the standard tracking database. The results show that the proposed algorithm can track the target in real time
and has a certain improvement in precision and success rate.
