This paper tackles a new challenge in multi-object tracking called open-corpus multi-object tracking (OCMOT). Unlike traditional MOT tasks, OCMOT involves recognizing generic-category objects from both seen and unseen classes without prior knowledge. To tackle this problem, the authors create OCTrackB, a large-scale benchmark dataset that provides a more balanced evaluation platform than previous datasets. The authors also propose a new recognition metric to assess generative object recognition in OCMOT. The paper evaluates various state-of-the-art methods on this benchmark and demonstrates the effectiveness of OCMOT and the advantages of using OCTrackB.

This paper is about a new way to track objects that we don’t know beforehand. It’s like trying to recognize animals or toys when you’ve never seen them before. The authors make a big dataset with many examples to help compare different methods for doing this task. They also come up with a new way to measure how well these methods do. By testing lots of top-performing methods on their dataset, the authors show that this new approach is useful and helps us learn more about recognizing objects.
