Compared with short-term tracking, long-term tracking is a more challenging task. It need to have the ability to capture the target in long-term sequences, and undergo the frequent disappearance and re-appearance of target. Therefore, long-term tracking is much closer to realistic tracking system. But few long-term tracking algorithms have been done and few promising performance have been shown. In this paper, we focus on long-term visual tracking framework based on parts with multiple correlation filters. First of all, multiple correlation filters have been applied to locate the target collaboratively and address the partial occlusion issue in a local search region. Based on the confidence score between the consecutive frames, our tracker determines whether the current tracking result is reliable or not. In addition, an online SVM detector is trained by sampling positive and negative samples around the reliable tracking target. The local-to-global search region strategy is adopted to adapt the short-term tracking and long-term tracking. When heavy occlusion or out-of-view causes the tracking failure, the re-detection module will be activated. Extensive experimental results on tracking datasets show that our proposed tracking method performs favorably against state-of-the-art methods in terms of accuracy, and robustness.
