<title>PMHT for maneuvering targets</title>

Sequential Monte Carlo methods for multiple target tracking and data fusion

“…As the variables are assumed dependent by A2), this computation implies the exhaustive enumeration of all the possible associations for . The novelty in the PMHT algorithm [12], [32], [33] consists of replacing the assumption A2) by A3): A3) One target can produce zero or several measurements at one time.…”

“…In [12], [32], and [33], the EM algorithm is extended and applied to multitarget tracking. This method implies that the vectors and are considered as parameters to estimate.…”

Integrated track maintenance for the PMHT via the hysteresis model

“…The standard PMHT restricts the prior to be either constant, or time independent. Existing PMHT research does not address the assignment prior; effort has instead focussed on the target dynamics model [4,8,6,9], more sophisticated measurement models [10][11][12], and matters of practical significance for realistic implementations [7,13,14]. A model is proposed here which allows the assignment prior to be a randomly evolving quantity.…”

“…The PMHT offers an attractive alternative to more traditional tracking approaches because it easily accommodates model complexity (such as multiple target dynamics models for manoeuvring targets) [4][5][6], and because its computation requirements scale linearly with the problem size [3].…”

PMHT based multiple point targets tracking using multiple models in infrared image sequence

“…The PMHT algorithm proposed in [7] operates in batch mode and it is not possible to track arbitrary trajectory. PMHT algorithm based on homothetic target models is presented in [5] for maneuvering target tracking. But it does not incorporate different models for target dynamics.…”
