Understanding Identity Continuity in Thermal Video through Scene-Level Consistency
Researchers demonstrate that robust identity tracking in thermal video pedestrian detection can be achieved through lightweight post-processing with scene-level spatial-temporal consistency rather than complex re-identification models. By adding modular identity-repair components to YOLOv8 and SORT baselines, they improved IDF1 scores from 82.25 to 84.93 on thermal MOT benchmarks, suggesting that conservative trajectory relinking outperforms increasing tracker complexity.
