TransCenter: Transformers with Dense Representations for Multiple-Object Tracking

The work is accepted for TPAMI 2022.

An update towards a more efficient and powerful TransCenter, TransCenter-Lite!

The code for TransCenter and TransCenter-Lite is now available, you can find the code and pretrained models at https://gitlab.inria.fr/robotlearn/TransCenter_official.
