Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for training multiple parameters of a machine-trained (MT) network subject to a sparsity constraint that requires a threshold portion of the parameters to be equal to zero. A first set of the parameters subject to the sparsity constraint are grouped into groups of parameters. For each parameter of a second set of the parameters subject to the sparsity constraint, the method determines an accuracy penalty associated with the parameter being set to zero. For each group of parameters in the first set of parameters, the method determines a minimum accuracy penalty for each possible number of parameters in the group being set to zero. The method uses the determined accuracy penalties to set to the value zero at least the threshold portion of the plurality of parameters.

Abstract: Embodiments of this application disclose a target tracking method performed at an electronic device. The electronic device obtains a first video stream and detects candidate regions within a current video frame in the first video stream. The electronic device then extracts, from the candidate regions, a deep feature corresponding to each candidate region and calculates a feature similarity for each candidate region and a deep feature of a target detected in a previous video frame. Finally, the electronic device determines, based on the feature similarity corresponding to the candidate region, that the target is detected in the current video frame. Target detection is performed in a range of video frames by using a target detection model, and target tracking is performed based on the deep feature, so that occurrence of cases such as a target tracking drift or loss can be effectively prevented, to ensure the accuracy of target tracking.
