A scalable algorithm for tracking an unknown number of targets using multiple sensors
(CMRE, 2019/06)
We propose an algorithm for tracking an unknown number of targets based on measurements provided by multiple sensors. Our algorithm achieves low computational complexity and excellent scalability by running belief propagation ...
Realistic ship model for extended target tracking algorithms
(CMRE, 2019/06)
Recent developments in high resolution sensors have encouraged the use of Extended Target Tracking (ETT) algorithms specifically designed to deal with targets that generate more than one detection per frame. At the same ...
Belief propagation based AIS/radar data fusion for multi-target tracking
(CMRE, 2019/05)
A data fusion technique aiming at combining observations from two classes of sensors is proposed. The first class consists of sensors that produce periodic noisy observations of the targets; moreover, they may also miss ...
Classification of odontocete buzz clicks using a multi-hypothesis tracker
(NURC, 2009/12)
Blainville's beaked whale (Mesoplodon densirostris) buzz clicks have been found to have characteristics that can vary significantly. While we have not succeeded to classify them individually, we find that their spectrum ...
Knowledge-based ship tracking applied to HF surface wave radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)
In recent years, low-power high-frequency surface-wave radars have received significant attention thanks to their over-the-horizon coverage capability and the continuous-time operation mode. These radars have become effective ...
Tracking an unknown number of targets using multiple sensors: a belief propagation method
(CMRE, 2019/06)
We propose a multisensor method for tracking an unknown number of targets. Low computational complexity and very good scalability in the number of targets, number of sensors, and number of measurements per sensor are ...
Heterogeneous information fusion for multitarget tracking using the sum-product algorithm
(CMRE, 2019/06)
The sum-product algorithm (SPA) was recently shown to provide a scalable methodology for multitarget tracking (MTT) using multiple sensors. Here, we focus on another advantage of the SPA frame-work, namely, its capacity ...
Variable structure interacting multiple model algorithm for ship tracking using HF surface wave radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)
These last decades spawned a great interest towards low-power High-Frequency (HF) Surface-Wave (SW) radars for ocean remote sensing. By virtue of their over-the-horizon coverage capability and continuous time mode of ...
An autonomous underwater vehicle data-driven control strategy for target tracking
(CMRE, 2019/05)
This paper presents a data-driven approach to control the movement of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) operating as receivers of a multistatic sonar surveillance network. The algorithm adopts a nonmyopic receding ...
