Abstract
A method for multi-object tracking includes receiving a sequence of images generated at respective times by one or more sensors configured to sense an environment through which objects are moving relative to the one or more sensors, and constructing a message passing graph in which each of a multiplicity of layers corresponds to a respective one in the sequence of images. The method also includes tracking multiple features through the sequence of images, including passing messages in a forward direction and a backward direction through the message passing graph to share information across time.
