We propose to improve the visual object tracking by introducing a soft mask based low-level feature fusion technique. The proposed technique is further strengthened by integrating channel and spatial attention mechanisms. The proposed approach is integrated within a Siamese framework to demonstrate its effectiveness for visual object tracking. The proposed soft mask is used to give more importance to the target regions as compared to the other regions to enable effective target feature representation and to increase discriminative power. The low-level feature fusion improves the tracker robustness against distractors. The channel attention is used to identify more discriminative channels for better target representation. The spatial attention complements the soft mask based approach to better localize the target objects in challenging tracking scenarios. We evaluated our proposed approach over five publicly available benchmark datasets and performed extensive comparisons with 39 state-of-the-art tracking algorithms. The proposed tracker demonstrates excellent performance compared to the existing state-of-the-art trackers.
