TrackDLO: Tracking Deformable Linear Objects Under Occlusion with Motion Coherence

IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters (IEEE Xplore: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10214157)

This repository contains the TrackDLO Robot Operating System (ROS) package. The TrackDLO ROS package is an implementation of our paper, TrackDLO: Tracking Deformable Linear Objects Under Occlusion with Motion Coherence, by Jingyi Xiang, Holly Dinkel, Harry Zhao, Naixiang Gao, Brian Coltin, Trey Smith, and Timothy Bretl. The TrackDLO algorithm is implemented in C++.
