Abstract:
A method and a device for multi-object tracking, and an electronic device are provided. The method includes: determining a hybrid-time position map of a current point cloud fragment; converting a tracked position map of a previous point cloud fragment into a temporary tracked position map of the current point cloud fragment; and averaging the hybrid-time position map and the temporary tracked position map of the current point cloud fragment, to generate a tracked position map of the current point cloud fragment. With the method and the device for multi-object tracking, and the electronic device, the hybrid-time position map and temporary tracked position map of the current point cloud fragment are averaged, so that not only the tracked position map of the current point cloud fragment is accurately generated, but also an object ID is inherited. Based on the object ID, the same object in different point cloud fragments are associated, so that multi-object tracking is implemented without an association step in the conventional solutions. It is unnecessary to set additional hyper-parameters, and strong versatility is achieved.
