The invention provides a multi-target tracking method based on self-adaptive threshold and buffer correlation, which relates to the technical field of
computer vision and comprises the following steps: calculating a self-adaptive
confidence threshold of each frame of image, dividing a detection frame of each frame of image into a high-
score detection frame and a low-
score detection frame, generating an initial motion track set, and tracking the initial motion track set according to the self-adaptive
confidence threshold; performing two-stage matching on the detection frame of each frame of image and the tracks in the initial motion track set, and generating a motion track set of each frame of
image based on a matching result, the motion track set including a plurality of matched tracks; and generating a target tracking result of each frame of
image based on the movement track set of each frame of image. According to the method, an adaptive
confidence threshold mechanism and a buffer intersection-union matching strategy are introduced, so that the threshold can change in real time according to the scene, and limitation caused by a fixed threshold is avoided. And a buffer intersection-parallel ratio is introduced, the boundary of the low-
score detection frame is properly expanded, and the expanded buffer frame is still possibly overlapped with the trajectory prediction frame sufficiently, so that successful matching is realized.
