issue about cnn-a_solver.prototxt

Hi Lijun,

Thank u very much for your code and paper. I've read your 2 tracking papers(ICCV2015 & CVPR2016), which are very admirable!

While I meet a problem about the STCT: when it runs the caffe_.mexa64 (which is well compiled by caffe installation) through cnn-a_solver.prototxt, it reports error, which is * MATLAB has encountered an internal problem and needs to close*.
I tried two well compiled machines, but it comes the same problems.

Appreciate it a lot for your valuable and kind favor.

All the best,
Lichao

Hi Lichao,

I have read your e-mail. Could you please provide more details on the error. In particular, please provide the error message returned by Caffe to the Terminal.

Best regards,

Lijun

Hi Lichao,

The error is caused by the "mask" parameter of convolution layer, which is not defined in the official version of Caffe. To solve this issue, you have to adopt my modified version of Caffe.

Hi, I am getting this exact error. I compiled the modified caffe version you linked to: https://github.com/scott89/caffe/tree/181a655dc9a0b573abf06fc005b3c62ea3f9fd33.

Any suggestions?

Hello again, just solved my previous issue:

If you use " >git clone https://github.com/scott89/caffe.git " to acquire caffe, it does not work. I downloaded the zip file and it did work.

Thanks for the great tracker!

Hi Matthew,
Please make sure that both caffe and matcaffe have been well compiled. It seems that you are not using my modified caffe version, since the mask field has already been added to ConvolutionParameter in my version. Also make sure that your are using the latest network definition format (Not that "layers" are old V0 versions. The latest net definition in prototxt files use "layer" ).

Use "git clone --recursive" to clone STCT will simultaneously clone caffe submodule.
