Systems and methods for tracking objects are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a system having a processor merges features of detected objects extracted from a point cloud and a corresponding image to generate fused features for the detected objects, generates a learned distance metric for the detected objects using the fused features, determines matched detected objects and unmatched detected objects, applies prior tracking identifiers of the detected objects at the prior time to the matched detected objects, determines a confidence score for the fused features of the unmatched detected objects, and applies new tracking identifiers to the unmatched detected objects based on the confidence score.
