Abstract

This article presents a novel target tracking algorithm for hyperspectral low altitude UAV, combining deep learning with an improved Kernelized Correlation Filter (KCF). Initially, an image noise reduction method based on principal component analysis with Block-Matching 3D (BM3D), is employed to process redundant information. Subsequently, an image fusion method is utilized to merge the processed hyperspectral image and the high-resolution panchromatic band image to obtain a high spatial resolution image for target enhancement. Following this, YOLOv5 is used to detect the coordinate information of the UAV target in the current frame. Then, The KCF algorithm is used for target tracking in the current frame using kernel correlation filtering. Finally, the Discriminative Scale Spatial Tracker (DSST) is employed to determine the scale information to achieve a multi-scale tracking effect. The experimental results demonstrate that the algorithm presented in this paper surpasses CSK, HLT, and the conventional KCF algorithm in hyperspectral UAV datasets. On average, there is a significant increase in accuracy which is over 17% when using our algorithm.
