Welcome to the WACV 2015 Multiple Object Tracking Challenge!
We are proud to announce the "MOT Challenge" as well as a new
Multiple Object Tracking Benchmark, intended to unify the way tracking is evaluated and to push
research forward by including new, more challenging sequences.
The main idea of the Challenge is to gather results of published tracking methods in order to determine how far state-of-the-art can go.
To that end, we introduce a new Multiple Object Tracking Benchmark
with 3 new sequences for training and 3 for testing.
Detections are provided for each sequence. We encourage submissions to use the provided detections, so only the tracking part is evaluated. Nonetheless,
methods that use their own detector or use only image as input can also submit their results to the benchmark as long as they specify this during submission.
- Deadline for submission of the abstract on the cmt site is 1st December 2014!
- A 2-page abstract paper should be submitted in camera-ready format.
Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings. - Abstracts can describe methods presented in already published papers (even
papers that will be presented at the main WACV 2015 conference). - All presented abstracts must submit the results of their method to the
MOT Challenge. The deadline for the submission of the results is
15th December 2014! - The results on the benchmark datasets do not need to be included in the written
abstract. - The rules of the Challenge must be respected.
- Each accepted abstract paper will have a short oral presentation.
- We will award the best performing method with a prize at the end of the workshop.
- All submissions will be handled electronically through the submission website.
