Recently, the performances of discriminative correlation filter (CF) trackers are getting better and better in visual tracking. In this paper, we propose spatial-temporal regularization with precise state estimation based on discriminative correlation filter (STPSE) in order to achieve more significant tracking performance. First, we consider the continuous change of the object state, using the information from the previous two filters for training the correlation filter model. Here, we train the correlation filter model with the hand-crafted features. Second, we introduce update control in which average peak-to-correlation energy (APCE) and the distance between the object locations obtained by HOG features and hand-crafted features are utilized to detect abnormality of the state around the object. APCE and the distance indicate the reliability of the filter response, thus if abnormality is detected, the proposed method does not update the scale and the object location estimated by the filter response. In the experiment, our tracker (STPSE) achieves significant and real-time performance with only CPU for the challenging benchmark sequence (OTB2013, OTB2015, and TC128).
