Many state-of-the-art approaches to people tracking rely on detecting them in each frame independently, grouping detections into short but reliable trajectory segments, and then further grouping them into full trajectories. This grouping typically relies on imposing local smoothness constraints but almost never on enforcing more global constraints on the trajectories. In this paper, we propose an approach to imposing global consistency by first inferring behavioral patterns from the ground truth and then using them to guide the tracking algorithm. When used in conjunction with severalstate-of-the-art algorithms, this further increases their already good performance. Furthermore, we propose an unsupervised scheme that yields almost similar improvements without the need for ground truth
