Fast Face Tracking-by-Detection Algorithm for Secure Monitoring

This work proposes a fast face tracking-by-detection (FFTD) algorithm that can perform tracking, face detection and discrimination tasks. On the basis of using the kernelized correlation filter (KCF) as the basic tracker, multitask cascade convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are used to detect the face, and a new tracking update strategy is designed. The update strategy uses the tracking result modified by detector to update the filter model. When the tracker drifts or fails, the discriminator module starts the detector to correct the tracking results, which ensures the out-of-view object can be tracked. Through extensive experiments, the proposed FFTD algorithm is shown to have good robustness and real-time performance for video monitoring scenes.
