Continuous Energy Minimization for Multitarget Tracking

Anton Milan and Stefan Roth and Konrad Schindler

About

This software implements our approach to multi-target tracking using continuous energy minimization [1,2,3].

The additional package

minimize.m

is released under a different license and is included for your convenience.

Important:

This software has been refactored for the sake of simplifying the implementation. Therefore, the results produced by the code may differ from those presented in the papers [1,2,3].

Installation

This section describes how to get cemtracking running under Linux. Open a terminal window.

Get the code

hg clone https://bitbucket.org/amilan/contracking

MOT utils

This package includes many useful functions for reading detections, displaying results, etc.

hg clone https://bitbucket.org/amilan/motutils
cd contracking

Start MATLAB and run compileMex.m to build the utilities binaries.

Running

run cemTrackerDemo.m
