  • 基于变分推断联合估计目标状态与关联,端到端追踪
  • 在满分辨率雷达数据上实现实时运行,支持千级目标
  • 无需外部检测器或聚类,对杂波有强鲁棒性

从噪声点云中进行多目标检测与追踪在数据稀缺的雷达应用中仍具挑战性。现有基于泊松测量模型的贝叶斯追踪器虽无需训练,但在严重杂波、大规模目标群体和全分辨率多普勒点云下难以兼顾精度与效率。本文提出PiVoT,一种快速、抗杂波的多目标追踪方法,可同时处理位置与多普勒测量。PiVoT通过联合推断目标状态、形状、存在概率、数据关联与测量率,实现端到端检测与追踪,无需外部聚类或检测器。其高效性源于多项变分推断创新:理论支持的新生目标剪枝、精确更新的复杂度从二次降至线性,以及高效的多普勒泊松模型。实验表明,PiVoT在复杂场景中显著优于现有贝叶斯追踪器,具备上千目标的卓越扩展性,对与目标视觉上无法区分的杂波具有强鲁棒性,并可在全尺度现代车载雷达数据集上实时运行,性能接近深度学习检测基准,作为免训练的联合检测与追踪器。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Multi-object detection and tracking from noisy point clouds remain challenging in many data-scarce radar applications. Current Bayesian trackers based on Poisson measurement models offer a training-free solution but struggle to achieve accuracy and efficiency under severe clutter, large object populations, and full-resolution Doppler point clouds. We address this with PiVoT, a fast, clutter-resilient multi-object tracker for both positional and Doppler measurements. PiVoT performs end-to-end detection and tracking of a large and time-varying number of objects without external clustering or detectors, through joint inference of object states, shapes, existence probabilities, data association, and measurement rates. Its efficiency is driven by several variational inference innovations, such as theoretically justified birth pruning, quadratic-to-linear complexity reductions for exact updates, and a computationally efficient Doppler Poisson model. Experiments show that PiVoT substantially outperforms existing Bayesian trackers in challenging scenes, while also demonstrating exceptional scalability to a thousand objects, robustness to clutter visually inseparable from objects, and real-time operation on full-scale modern automotive radar datasets, where it attains performance comparable to a deep-learning detection benchmark as a training-free joint detector and tracker.
