Methods and systems for generating an annotated dataset for training a deep tracking neural network, and training of the neural network using the annotated dataset. For each object in each frame of a dataset, one or more likelihood functions are calculated to correlate feature score of the object with respective feature scores each associated with one or more previously assigned target identifiers (IDs) in a selected range of frames. A target ID is assigned to the object by assigning a previously assigned target ID associated with a calculated highest likelihood or assigning a new target ID. Track management is performed according to a predefined track management scheme to assign a track type to the object. This is performed for all objects in all frames of the dataset. The resulting annotated dataset contains target IDs and track types assigned to all objects in all frames.
