Short-term Tracking - the VOT challenge and the State-of-the-art.

Jiri Matas (Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic)

The Visual Object Tracking challenge http://www.votchallenge.net/ is a benchmarking activity for a certain class of trackers. The talk will introduce the challenge, its semi-automactic selection and annotation of test data and the performance metrics. We will review the results for 2013, presented at ICCV, and provide a sneak preview of 2014 results to be presented at an ECCV workshop.
