# install anaconda if you don't have it yet
wget https://repo.continuum.io/archive/Anaconda3-5.3.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Anaconda3-5.3.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
source ~/.profile
# or use source ~/.bashrc - depending on where anaconda was added to PATH as the result of the installation
Clone the repo, build the environment and build the benchmark toolkits
git clone https://github.com/xl-sr/THOR.git
cd THOR
# create the conda environment
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate THOR
# build the vot toolkits
bash benchmark/make_toolkits.sh
The .pth for SiamFC is already in the repo since it is small. The SiamRPN and SiamMask models need to be downloaded and moved to their respective subfolder.
SiamRPN
get model here โ move to ./trackers/SiamRPN/model.pth
SiamMask
download the model and move to subfolder
wget http://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~qwang/SiamMask_VOT.pth
mv SiamMask_VOT.pth trackers/SiamMask/model.pth
Run the download script to get the OTB2015 and VOT2018 datasets
cd data/
bash get_test_data.sh
To reproduce the benchmark results from the paper run for example:
# on VOT2018, with THOR (ensemble) enabled, using SiamRPN
python bench.py -d VOT2018 -t SiamRPN --lb_type ensemble
# on VOT2018, with THOR disabled, using SiamRPN
python bench.py -d VOT2018 -t SiamRPN --vanilla
Option | |
---|---|
-d DATASET, --dataset DATASET |
(Required) Dataset on which the benchmark is run [VOT2018, OTB2015] |
-t TRACKER, --tracker TRACKER |
(Required) Name of the tracker [SiamFC, SiamRPN, SiamMask] |
--vanilla |
Run the tracker without THOR |
-v, --viz |
Show the tracked scene, the stored templated and the modulated view |
--verbose |
Print additional info about THOR |
--lb_type LOWER_BOUND |
Specify the type of lower bound [dynamic, ensemble] |
--spec_video VIDEO_NAME |
Pick a specific video by name, e.g. "lemming" on OTB2015 |
--save_path PATH |
Relative path where the tracked trajectory should be saved |
To run THOR on your webcam / camera, run the following command
# with THOR (ensemble) enabled, using SiamRPN
python webcam_demo.py --tracker SiamRPN
# with THOR disabled, using SiamRPN
python webcam_demo.py --tracker SiamRPN --vanilla
Option | |
---|---|
-t TRACKER, --tracker TRACKER |
(Required) Name of the tracker [SiamFC, SiamRPN, SiamMask] |
--vanilla |
Run the tracker without THOR |
-v, --viz |
Show the stored templated and the modulated view |
--verbose |
Print additional info about THOR |
--lb_type LOWER_BOUND |
Specify the type of lower bound [dynamic, ensemble] |
The code (with some modifications) and models of the trackers are from the following linked repositories:
