Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) single-object tracking (3D SOT) is a fundamental yet not well-solved problem in 3D vision, where the complexity of feature matching and the sparsity of point clouds pose significant challenges. To handle abrupt changes in appearance features and sparse point clouds, we propose a novel 3D SOT network, dubbed CDTracker. It leverages both cosine similarity and an attention mechanism to enhance the robustness of feature matching. By combining similarity embedding and attention assignment, CDTracker performs template and search area feature matching in a coarse-to-fine manner. Additionally, CDTracker addresses the problem of sparse point clouds, which commonly leads to inaccurate tracking. It incorporates relatively dense sampling based on the concept of point cloud segmentation to retain more target points, leading to improved localization accuracy. Extensive experiments on both the KITTI and Waymo datasets demonstrate clear improvements in CDTracker over its competitors.
