Abstract: The self-training based discriminative tracking methods use the classification results to update the classifier itself. However, these methods easily suffer from the drifting issue because the classification errors are accumulated during tracking. To overcome the disadvantages of self-training based tracking methods, a novel co-training tracking algorithm, termed Co-SemiBoost, is proposed based on online semi-supervised boosting. The proposed algorithm employs a new online co-training framework, where unlabeled samples are used to collaboratively train the classifiers respectively built on two feature views. Moreover, the pseudo-labels and weights of unlabeled samples are iteratively predicted by combining the decisions of a prior model and an online classifier. The proposed algorithm can effectively improve the discriminative ability of the classifier, and is robust to occlusions, illumination changes, etc. Thus the algorithm can better adapt to object appearance changes. Experimental results on several challenging video sequences show that the proposed algorithm achieves promising tracking performance.
