Convolutional neural networks can efficiently exploit sophisticated hierarchical features which have different properties for visual tracking problem. In this paper, by using multilayer convolutional features jointly and constructing a scale pyramid, we propose an online scale adaptive tracking method. We construct two separate correlation filters for translation and scale estimations. The translation filters improve the accuracy of target localization by a weighted fusion of multiple convolutional layers. Meanwhile, the separate scale filters achieve the optimal and fast scale estimation by a scale pyramid. This design decreases the mutual errors of translation and scale estimations, and reduces computational complexity efficiently. Moreover, in order to solve the problem of tracking drifts due to the severe occlusion or serious appearance changes of the target, we present a new adaptive and selective update mechanism to update the translation filters effectively. Extensive experimental results show that our proposed method achieves the excellent overall performance compared with the state-of-the-art methods.
