Abstract Visual target tracking remains a hard problem due to unpredictable target rotation and external interference. To address this issue, a target tracking algorithm based on rotation adaptation, multi-feature fusion and multi-template learning(RA-MFML) is proposed. Firstly, a multi-template learning model with complementary characteristics is constructed. The global filter template is used for tracking the target. When the global filter template is determined to be contaminated by the decidable filter template, it is corrected by the modified filter template. Then, the color histogram is regarded as visual supplementary information and fused with feature map of VGGNet-19 adaptively. The discriminating ability of the global filter template for object appearance is thus improved. Finally, a rotation adaptation strategy is proposed. The improved tracking confidence is utilized for the estimation of the optimal rotation angle of the tracking box to alleviate performance degradation of the global filter template caused by target rotation. The experiment on OTB-2013 and OTB-2015 datasets demonstrate that RA-MFML is superior in success rate and precision.
