Researchers have developed an edge-aware tracking pipeline for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operating in challenging thermal infrared (TIR) environments. The proposed Adaptive Kinematic Kalman Filter (AKKF) enhances motion modeling for dynamic UAV movements and sensor jitter while maintaining real-time efficiency. This approach is further supported by methods for suppressing false positives and predictive coasting, which improve trajectory continuity under difficult TIR conditions. Experiments on the Beyond Strong Baseline (BSB) benchmark demonstrate the pipeline's effectiveness in jointly evaluating tracking performance and computational efficiency for real-time deployment. AI
