In this work, an adaptive neural-fuzzy-based multi-sensor data fusion (ANF-MDF) architecture for target tracking systems is presented. In this architecture, neural networks are employed to detect and estimate target manoeuvres, and adaptivenetwork-based fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) are used to adjust the measurement noise covariance matrices. They are combined as an adaptive mechanism to cooperate with Kalman filters to process measurements from multiple sensors, whose outputs are fused by a specific neural network to obtain optimal results. The results of simulations demonstrate this architecture can adjust system parameters and respond quickly to avoid mistracking effectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
