Localisation of mobile nodes in wireless networks with correlated in time measurement noise.
Wireless sensor networks are an inherent part of decision making, object tracking and location awareness systems. This work is focused on simultaneous localisation of mobile nodes based on received signal strength indicators (RSSIs) with correlated in time measurement noises. Two approaches to deal with the correlated measurement noises are proposed in the framework of auxiliary particle filtering: with a noise augmented state vector and the second approach implements noise decorrelation. The performance of the two proposed multi model auxiliary particle filters (MM AUX-PFs) is validated over simulated and real RSSIs and high localisation accuracy is demonstrated
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
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

On the Stability and the Approximation of Branching Distribution Flows, with Applications to Nonlinear Multiple Target Filtering
We analyse the exponential stability properties of a class of measure-valued
equations arising in nonlinear multi-target filtering problems. We also prove
the uniform convergence properties w.r.t. the time parameter of a rather
general class of stochastic filtering algorithms, including sequential Monte
Carlo type models and mean eld particle interpretation models. We illustrate
these results in the context of the Bernoulli and the Probability Hypothesis
Density filter, yielding what seems to be the first results of this kind in
this subject
