Two-layer particle filter for multiple target detection and tracking
This paper deals with the detection and tracking of an unknown number of targets using a Bayesian hierarchical model with target labels. To approximate the posterior probability density function, we develop a two-layer particle filter. One deals with track initiation, and the other with track maintenance. In addition, the parallel partition method is proposed to sample the states of the surviving targets
Bibliographic Review on Distributed Kalman Filtering
In recent years, a compelling need has arisen to understand the effects of distributed information structures on estimation and filtering. In this paper, a bibliographical review on distributed Kalman filtering (DKF) is provided.\ud
The paper contains a classification of different approaches and methods involved to DKF. The applications of DKF are also discussed and explained separately. A comparison of different approaches is briefly carried out. Focuses on the contemporary research are also addressed with emphasis on the practical applications of the techniques. An exhaustive list of publications, linked directly or indirectly to DKF in the open literature, is compiled to provide an overall picture of different developing aspects of this area
A track-before-detect labelled multi-Bernoulli particle filter with label switching
This paper presents a multitarget tracking particle filter (PF) for general
track-before-detect measurement models. The PF is presented in the random
finite set framework and uses a labelled multi-Bernoulli approximation. We also
present a label switching improvement algorithm based on Markov chain Monte
Carlo that is expected to increase filter performance if targets get in close
proximity for a sufficiently long time. The PF is tested in two challenging
numerical examples.Comment: Accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and
