Vehicles speed calculation with YOLO v4 (Thanks Sam Blake for great idea!)

First step to ADAS with YOLO v4

Multitarget (multiple objects) tracker

1. Objects detector can be created with function CreateDetector with different values of the detectorType:

1.1. Based on background substraction: built-in Vibe (tracking::Motion_VIBE), SuBSENSE (tracking::Motion_SuBSENSE) and LOBSTER (tracking::Motion_LOBSTER); MOG2 (tracking::Motion_MOG2) from opencv; MOG (tracking::Motion_MOG), GMG (tracking::Motion_GMG) and CNT (tracking::Motion_CNT) from opencv_contrib. For foreground segmentation used contours from OpenCV with result as cv::RotatedRect

1.2. Haar face detector from OpenCV (tracking::Face_HAAR)

1.3. HOG pedestrian detector from OpenCV (tracking::Pedestrian_HOG) and C4 pedestrian detector from sturkmen72 (tracking::Pedestrian_C4)

1.4. Detector based on opencv_dnn (tracking::DNN_OCV) and pretrained models from chuanqi305 and pjreddie

1.5. YOLO detector (tracking::Yolo_Darknet) with darknet inference from AlexeyAB and pretrained models from pjreddie

1.6. YOLO detector (tracking::Yolo_TensorRT) with NVidia TensorRT inference from enazoe and pretrained models from pjreddie

1.7. You can to use custom detector with bounding or rotated rectangle as output.

2. Matching or solve an assignment problem:

2.1. Hungrian algorithm (tracking::MatchHungrian) with cubic time O(N^3) where N is objects count

2.2. Algorithm based on weighted bipartite graphs (tracking::MatchBipart) from rdmpage with time O(M * N^2) where N is objects count and M is connections count between detections on frame and tracking objects. It can be faster than Hungrian algorithm

2.3. Distance from detections and objects: euclidean distance in pixels between centers (tracking::DistCenters), euclidean distance in pixels between rectangles (tracking::DistRects), Jaccard or IoU distance from 0 to 1 (tracking::DistJaccard)

3. Smoothing trajectories and predict missed objects:

3.1. Linear Kalman filter from OpenCV (tracking::KalmanLinear)

3.2. Unscented Kalman filter from OpenCV (tracking::KalmanUnscented) with constant velocity or constant acceleration models

3.3. Kalman goal is only coordinates (tracking::FilterCenter) or coordinates and size (tracking::FilterRect)

3.4. Simple Abandoned detector

3.5. Line intersection counting

4. Advanced visual search for objects if they have not been detected:

4.1. No search (tracking::TrackNone)

4.2. Built-in DAT (tracking::TrackDAT) from foolwood, STAPLE (tracking::TrackSTAPLE) from xuduo35 or LDES (tracking::TrackLDES) from yfji; KCF (tracking::TrackKCF), MIL (tracking::TrackMIL), MedianFlow (tracking::TrackMedianFlow), GOTURN (tracking::TrackGOTURN), MOSSE (tracking::TrackMOSSE) or CSRT (tracking::TrackCSRT) from opencv_contrib

With this option the tracking can work match slower but more accuracy.

5. Pipeline

5.1. Syncronous pipeline - SyncProcess:

get frame from capture device;
decoding;
objects detection (1);
tracking (2-4);
show result.

This pipeline is good if all algorithms are fast and works faster than time between two frames (40 ms for device with 25 fps). Or it can be used if we have only 1 core for all (no parallelization).

5.2. Pipeline with 2 threads - AsyncProcess:

1th thread takes frame t and makes capture, decoding and objects detection;
2th thread takes frame t-1, results from first thread and makes tracking and results presentation (this is the Main read).

So we have a latency on 1 frame but on two free CPU cores we can increase performance on 2 times.

5.3. Fully acynchronous pipeline can be used if the objects detector works with low fps and we have a free 2 CPU cores. In this case we use 4 threads:

1th main thread is not busy and used for GUI and result presentation;
2th thread makes capture and decoding, puts frames in threadsafe queue;
3th thread is used for objects detection on the newest frame from the queue;
4th thread is used for objects tracking: waits the frame with detection from 3th tread and used advanced visual search (4) in intermediate frames from queue until it ges a frame with detections.

This pipeline can used with slow but accuracy DNN and track objects in intermediate frame in realtime without latency.

Also you can read Wiki in Russian.

Tested Platforms

Ubuntu Linux 18.04 with x86 processors
Ubuntu Linux 18.04 with Nvidia Jetson Nano (YOLO + darknet on GPU works!)
Windows 10 (x64 and x32 builds)

Build

Download project sources
Install CMake
Install OpenCV (https://github.com/opencv/opencv) and OpenCV contrib (https://github.com/opencv/opencv_contrib) repositories
Configure project CmakeLists.txt, set OpenCV_DIR (-DOpenCV_DIR=/path/to/opencv/build).
If opencv_contrib don't installed then disable options USE_OCV_BGFG=OFF, USE_OCV_KCF=OFF and USE_OCV_UKF=OFF
If you want to use native darknet YOLO detector with CUDA + cuDNN then set BUILD_YOLO_LIB=ON (Install first CUDA and cuDNN libraries from Nvidia)
If you want to use YOLO detector with TensorRT then set BUILD_YOLO_TENSORRT=ON (Install first TensorRT library from Nvidia)
For building example with low fps detector (now native darknet YOLO detector) and Tracker worked on each frame: BUILD_ASYNC_DETECTOR=ON
For building example with line crossing detection (cars counting): BUILD_CARS_COUNTING=ON
Go to the build directory and run make

Full build:

       git clone https://github.com/Smorodov/Multitarget-tracker.git
       cd Multitarget-tracker
       mkdir build
       cd build
       cmake . .. -DUSE_OCV_BGFG=ON -DUSE_OCV_KCF=ON -DUSE_OCV_UKF=ON -DBUILD_YOLO_LIB=ON -DBUILD_YOLO_TENSORRT=ON -DBUILD_ASYNC_DETECTOR=ON -DBUILD_CARS_COUNTING=ON

Using MT Tracking as a library in your CMake project

Build MTTracking in the usual way, and choose an installation prefix where the library will be installed (see CMake Documentation for the defaults).

In the build directory run

$ cmake --install .

This will generate the CMake files needed to find the MTTracking package with libraries and include files for your project. E.g.

MTTrackingConfig.cmake
MTTrackingConfigVersion.cmake
MTTrackingTargets.cmake

In your CMake project, do the following:

    find_package(MTTracking REQUIRED)
    target_include_directories(MyProjectTarget PUBLIC ${MTTracking_INCLUDE_DIR})
    target_link_libraries(MyProjectTarget PUBLIC MTTracking::mtracking MTTracking::mdetection)

You may need to provide CMake with the location to find the above .cmake files, e.g.

$ cmake -DMTTracking_DIR=<location_of_cmake_files> ..

If CMake succeeds at finding the package, you can use MTTracking in your project e.g.

#include <mtracking/Ctracker.h>
//...
    std::unique_ptr<BaseTracker> m_tracker;

	TrackerSettings settings;
	settings.SetDistance(tracking::DistJaccard);
    m_tracker = BaseTracker::CreateTracker(settings);
//...

And so on.
