| Summary: | In this study, we present a novel tracking system, in which the tracking accuracy can be considerably enhanced by state prediction. Accordingly, we present a new Q-learning-based reinforcement method, augmented by Wang–Landau sampling. In the proposed method, reinforcement learning is used to predict a target configuration for the subsequent frame, while Wang–Landau sampler balances the exploitation and exploration degrees of the prediction. Our method can adapt to control the randomness of policy, using statistics on the number of visits in a particular state. Thus, our method considerably enhances conventional Q-learning algorithm performance, which also enhances visual tracking performance. Numerical results demonstrate that our method substantially outperforms other state-of-the-art visual trackers and runs in realtime because our method contains no complicated deep neural network architectures.
