News

(May 28, 2017) Python implementation of MDNet is avaliable! [py-MDNet]

Introduction

MDNet is the state-of-the-art visual tracker based on a CNN trained on a large set of tracking sequences, and the winner tracker of The VOT2015 Challenge.

Detailed description of the system is provided by our paper.

This software is implemented using MatConvNet and part of R-CNN.

System Requirements

This code is tested on 64 bit Linux (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS).

Prerequisites 0. MATLAB (tested with R2014a) 0. MatConvNet (tested with version 1.0-beta10, included in this repository) 0. For GPU support, a GPU (~2GB memory) and CUDA toolkit according to the MatConvNet installation guideline will be needed.

Installation

  1. Compile MatConvNet according to the installation guideline. An example script is provided in 'compile_matconvnet.m'.
  2. Run 'setup_mdnet.m' to set the environment for running MDNet.

Online Tracking using MDNet

Pretrained Models

If you only need to run the tracker, you can use the pretrained MDNet models: 0. models/mdnet_vot-otb.mat (trained on VOT13,14,15 excluding OTB) 0. models/mdnet_otb-vot14.mat (trained on OTB excluding VOT14) 0. models/mdnet_otb-vot15.mat (trained on OTB excluding VOT15)

Demo 0. Run 'tracking/demo_tracking.m'.

The demo performs online tracking on 'Diving' sequence using a pretrained model 'models/mdnet_vot-otb.mat'.

In case of out of GPU memory, decrease opts.batchSize_test in 'tracking/mdnet_init.m'. You can also disable the GPU support by setting opts.useGpu in 'tracking/mdnet_init.m' to false (not recommended).

Learning MDNet

Preparing Datasets

You may need OTB and VOT datasets for learning MDNet models. You can also use other datasets by configuring 'utils/genConfig.m'. 0. Download OTB and VOT datasets. 0. Locate the OTB sequences in 'dataset/OTB' and VOT201x sequences in 'dataset/VOT/201x', or modify the variables benchmarkSeqHome in 'utils/genConfig.m' properly.

Demo 0. Run 'pretraining/demo_pretraining.m'.

The demo trains new MDNet models using OTB or VOT sequences.
