Abstract

Aiming at the real-time tracking problem of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) based on video under fog conditions, we propose a multitarget real-time tracking method that combines the Deepsort algorithm with detection based on improved dark channel defogging and improved You Only Look Once version 5 (YOLOv5) algorithm. The contributions of this paper are as follows: 1. For the multitarget tracking problem under fog interference, a multialgorithm combination method is proposed. 2. By optimizing dark channel defogging, the complexity of the original algorithm is reduced from On2 to On, which simplifies the processing time of the defogging algorithm. 3. The YOLOv5 network structure is optimized so that the network can synchronously reduce the detection time while maintaining high-precision detection. 4. The amount of algorithm processing through image size compression is reduced, and the real-time performance under high-precision tracking is improved. In the experiments conducted, the proposed method improved tracking precision by 36.1% and tracking speed by 39%. The average time of tracking per image frame was 0.036s, satisfying the real-time tracking of multiple UAVs in foggy weather.
