- Title: Learning Motion Blur Robust ViTs for UAV Tracking (BDTrack)
- Date: 2026-04-10
- ArXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.05383
- Repo: https://github.com/wuyou3474/BDTrack
- Compute: GPU-NEED
- Defense Score: 38/50
- Tier: T3
- Core method: ViT tracker with blur-aware dynamic block exit for motion blur robustness
- What we take: Core architecture and training pipeline
- What we skip: Parts not relevant to UAV/drone defense or edge deployment
- What we adapt: Integrate with YOLO26 base, dual compute (MLX+CUDA), 1.8M UAV dataset
- Read the paper completely
- Check if reference repo exists and runs
- Check if reported datasets are accessible
- Check if claimed metrics are plausible
- Look for independent reproductions or citations
- If ANY red flag → document in NEXT_STEPS.md and flag for CTO review
- If paper is unusable → create KILLED.md with reason, stop work
- 1.8M Mega UAV Dataset (internal) — primary training set
- VisDrone: drone-captured object detection
- UAVDT: UAV detection and tracking
- DroneVehicle: drone-vehicle cross-modal
- SeaDronesSee: maritime UAV detection
- Check shared volume first: /Volumes/AIFlowDev/RobotFlowLabs/datasets/
- Download script:
bash scripts/download_data.sh
- Mac Studio M-series: MLX development, fast iteration
- GPU Server (Vast.ai RTX 4090): Full training, CUDA
- ZED 2i stereo camera: Perception testing
- Unitree L2 3D LiDAR: Fusion/SLAM testing
- Datasets: /Volumes/AIFlowDev/RobotFlowLabs/datasets/
- ROS2 Bridge: anima-ros2-bridge
- Simulator: anima-Ros2-Gazebo (Dockerized,
docker compose up) - GPU Server: Vast.ai (RTX 4090 or similar)
ALL code must run on BOTH MLX and CUDA:
device.pyhandles backend auto-detection--backend mlx|cuda|cpuflag on all scripts- Results must match within tolerance (atol=1e-4 fp32, atol=1e-2 fp16)
