A data-driven control strategy in synergy with continuous active sonar for littoral underwater surveillance
(CMRE, 2017/11)In this work, we describe a data-driven Mission Management Layer (MML) running on-board AUVs which manages the phases of a littoral surveillance mission and exploits the characteristics of Continuous Active Sonar (CAS) ... -
Adaptive sub-band processing in active detection and tracking
(NURC, 2007/11)Broadband active systems have the potential to increase detection performance in reverberation-limited areas through increased signal bandwidth, i.e. small resolution cell. However, large bandwidth could over-resolve the ... -
Ambiguity reduction of underwater targets in framework of topic modeling
(CMRE, 2019/06)An unsupervised track classification approach based on appropriate discriminative and aggregative features derived from beamformed and normalized matched-filtered data is applied to sonar multistatic tracking and extended ... -
Autonomous networked anti-submarine warfare research and development at CMRE
(CMRE, 2019/06)CMRE has been evaluating the potential of autonomous networked ASW using underwater vehicles through a program of sonar signal processing, underwater communications, navigation and robotic behavior developments and at-sea ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Benchmark analysis of NURC multistatic tracking capability
(NURC, 2006/08)This paper provides a brief description and performance results for the multistatic sonar trackers developed at NURC. Our analysis is based on common data distributed as part of the Multistatic Tracking Working Group ... -
Benchmark evaluation of multistatic trackers
(NURC, 2006/08)This paper provides an overview of the Special Session on Multistatic Sonar and Radar Tracking at FUSION 2006. This includes background on the Multistatic Tracking Working Group, a brief description of the datasets and ... -
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 ... -
Contact-level multistatic sonar data simulator for tracker performance assessment
(NURC, 2006/08)This paper provides an overview of a multistatic sonar contact-data simulation approach and a dataset generated specifically for tracker algorithm evaluation by the Multistatic Tracking Working Group (MSTWG). A brief ... -
Converted measurements Bayesian extended target tracking applied to X-band marine radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)X-band marine radar systems are flexible and low-cost tools for monitoring multiple targets in a surveillance area. They can provide high resolution measurements both in space and time. Such features offer the opportunity ... -
Converted measurements random matrix approach to extended target tracking using X-band marine radar data
(CMRE, 2019/06)Conventional tracking algorithms rely upon the hypothesis of one detection per target for each frame. However, very fine spatial resolution radars represent widespread systems that provide data for which this hypothesis ... -
Detecting anomalous deviations from standard maritime routes using the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process
(CMRE, 2019/05)A novel anomaly detection procedure based on the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) mean-reverting stochastic process is presented. The considered anomaly is a vessel that deviates from a planned route, changing its nominal velocity ... -
Detection models and target information processing
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1982/06)The passive sonar equation leads in a natural manner to sensor detection performance contours. Useful information can be extracted from observed fractional holding time on non-cooperative targets by use of these contours. ... -
Detection, tracking and fusion of multiple HFSW radars for ship traffic surveillance: experimental performance assessment
(CMRE, 2014/05)Low-power HF surface-wave radars fit well the role of long-range early-warning tools in maritime situational awareness applications, by virtue of their over-the-horizon coverage capability and continuoustime mode of ... -
Distributed information fusion in multistatic sensor networks for underwater surveillance
(CMRE, 2019/06)Surveillance in antisubmarine warfare has traditionally been carried out by means of submarines or frigates with towed arrays. These techniques are manpower intensive. Alternative approaches have recently been suggested ... -
