Observation-Centric SORT (OC-SORT) is a pure motion-model-based multi-object tracker. It aims to improve tracking robustness in crowded scenes and when objects are in non-linear motion. It is designed by recognizing and fixing limitations in Kalman filter and SORT. It is flexible to integrate with different detectors and matching modules, such as appearance similarity. It remains, Simple, Online and Real-time.

To run the tracker on a provided demo video from Youtube:
python3 tools/demo_track.py --demo_type video -f exps/example/mot/yolox_dancetrack_test.py -c pretrained/ocsort_dance_model.pth.tar --path videos/dance_demo.mp4 --fp16 --fuse --save_result --out_path demo_out.mp4
We are still actively updating OC-SORT. We always welcome contributions to make it better for the community. We have some high-priorty to-dos as below:
