Query: Adaptive Subsampling for ROI-based Visual Tracking: Algorithms and FPGA
  Implementation   There is tremendous scope for improving the energy efficiency of embedded
vision systems by incorporating programmable region-of-interest (ROI) readout
in the image sensor design. In this work, we study how ROI programmability can
be leveraged for tracking applications by anticipating where the ROI will be
located in future frames and switching pixels off outside of this region. We
refer to this process of ROI prediction and corresponding sensor configuration
as adaptive subsampling. Our adaptive subsampling algorithms comprise an object
detector and an ROI predictor (Kalman filter) which operate in conjunction to
optimize the energy efficiency of the vision pipeline with the end task being
object tracking. To further facilitate the implementation of our adaptive
algorithms in real life, we select a candidate algorithm and map it onto an
FPGA. Leveraging Xilinx Vitis AI tools, we designed and accelerated a YOLO
object detector-based adaptive subsampling algorithm. In order to further
improve the algorithm post-deployment, we evaluated several competing baselines
on the OTB100 and LaSOT datasets. We found that coupling the ECO tracker with
the Kalman filter has a competitive AUC score of 0.4568 and 0.3471 on the
OTB100 and LaSOT datasets respectively. Further, the power efficiency of this
algorithm is on par with, and in a couple of instances superior to, the other
baselines. The ECO-based algorithm incurs a power consumption of approximately
4 W averaged across both datasets while the YOLO-based approach requires power
consumption of approximately 6 W (as per our power consumption model). In terms
of accuracy-latency tradeoff, the ECO-based algorithm provides near-real-time
performance (19.23 FPS) while managing to attain competitive tracking
precision.
