This paper tackles a pressing issue in multi-object tracking (MOT) methods, which rely on transformer-based models but suffer from slow inference speeds due to their structure or other limitations. To address this problem, the authors revisit the Joint Detection and Tracking (JDT) method by combining it with advanced theories. They propose FastTrackTr, an efficient framework that reduces queries during tracking and avoids complex network structures, making it simpler. Experimental results demonstrate the potential for real-time tracking and competitive accuracy across multiple datasets.

This paper helps solve a big problem in tracking objects in videos. Current methods are fast but not very good at keeping track of many things at once. The authors look back at older ideas and combine them with new ways of thinking to create something better. They make a new method called FastTrackTr that is fast and good at tracking, even when there are lots of things moving around. This is important because it could be used in real-life applications like self-driving cars or surveillance systems.
