Recently, Multi-Object Tracking (MOT) has attracted rising attention, and accordingly, remarkable progresses have been achieved. However, the existing methods tend to use various basic models (e.g, detector embedding model), different training or inference tricks, etc. As a result, construction of good baseline for fair comparison is essential. In this paper, classic tracker, i.e., DeepSORT, first revisited, then significantly improved from multiple perspectives such as object detection,...

A great number of improved fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithms have been widely used for grayscale and color image segmentation. However, most them are time-consuming unable to provide desired segmentation results images due two reasons. The first one is that the incorporation local spatial information often causes a high computational complexity repeated distance computation between centers pixels within neighboring window. other regular window usually breaks up real structure thus...
