Abstract

The application discloses an infrared and visible light target tracking correlation method and system based on bimodal fusion modeling, and the method comprises the following steps: target detection networks are used to detect an infrared image and a corresponding visible light image respectively to obtain a detection frame set; Kalman filtering algorithm is used to obtain two prediction frame sets; visible light motion similarity, infrared gradient structural similarity and bimodal appearance similarity are calculated respectively between the detection frames in the detection frame set of the visible light image and the prediction frames in the prediction frame set; three indexes are fused by weighting to obtain a comprehensive correlation score, and a one-to-one matching result of infrared and visible light target tracking correlation is obtained based on the Hungarian algorithm. The application aims to solve the problems that the correlation basis is single in the existing infrared and visible light bimodal target tracking, and the identity switching and mis-matching are prone to occur in complex scenes, and improve the reliability of target correlation and the stability of subsequent state updating in complex scenes.
