C++ port of Simple online and realtime tracking(SORT)

Introduction

This is a C++ implementation of SORT, a simple online and realtime tracking algorithm for 2D multiple object tracking in video sequences. Original Python code and publication infomation found at https://github.com/abewley/sort , By Alex Bewley

This code has been tested on Windows with Visual Studio Community 2013 + OpenCV 2.4.8. It depends on OpenCV without any other libs, so theoretically it can be compiled on Linux with OpenCV support.

Detection data in The ./data folder come from the original directory of SORT. They are the Faster RCNN detections for the MOT benchmark sequences in the benchmark format, created by Alex Bewley.

The Hungarian algorithm implementation comes from https://github.com/mcximing/hungarian-algorithm-cpp, which is derived from Markus Buehren's code.

The license is also kept to the GPLv3 License.

Results

The overall results of code are close to those of original SORT implmentation.

Using the MOT challenge devkit this code produces the following results.

A bit worse than original SORT but not significantly. This may due to my keeping the default parameters of Kalman filters. The speed of this implementation is at about 1800 FPS, or ~3 seconds over 5500 frames on my machine, with the Debug configuration.
