Identity-Consistent Analysis of Long-Shot Windsurfing Video: A Domain-Specific Offline Tracking System
Abstract
Long-shot windsurfing video combines small targets, large camera pans, prolonged overlaps, and rapidly changing backgrounds. The desired output is not a generic MOT trace but a separate, stable rider-relative video for each surfer; one false identity merge can invalidate an otherwise useful result. We present an offline analysis system that detects surfers, forms conservative local tracklets, links them globally with camera-compensated motion and a foreground-masked sail-color descriptor, and uses two pose keypoints on the rig to drive a rider-relative virtual camera. The tracking stage is evaluated on 21 manually reconstructed development videos containing 41,004 retained observations. On this fixed-observation protocol, the production system achieves 0.957 pairwise precision, 0.918 recall, and 0.937 F1, compared with 0.792 F1 for OC-SORT and 0.828 for BoT-SORT. Compared with OC-SORT, it reduces fragmentation excess from 845 to 42, but nine of its 95 output tracks mix rider identities and these errors affect seven of the 21 videos.引用本文复制引用
