This paper introduces an innovative multi-camera vehicle tracking system that utilizes a self-supervised camera link model for matching vehicle trajectories across different cameras based solely on feature extraction. The proposed approach eliminates the need for manual spatial-temporal annotations, offering substantial improvements in efficiency and cost-effectiveness when it comes to real-world application. The method involves evaluating feature similarities, pair numbers, and time variance for high-quality tracks, which calculates the probability of spatial linkage for all camera combinations. This pairing process sets spatial-temporal constraints, reducing the searching space for potential vehicle matches. The paper achieves a new state-of-the-art among automatic camera-link based methods in CityFlow V2 benchmarks with 61.07% IDF1 Score.

This paper creates a way to track vehicles using cameras from different angles. It’s like trying to find a specific car in a busy parking lot, but instead of looking around, the computer looks at patterns and features from each camera. The new method makes it faster and cheaper to do this tracking without needing humans to label all the information first. This is important for things like traffic management and crash detection.
