Book Adaptive Detection Threshold Optimization for Multi Target Tracking in Clutter

Download or read book Adaptive Detection Threshold Optimization for Multi Target Tracking in Clutter written by Saul Gelfand and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of selecting signal processing parameters, particularly detection thresholds, so as to optimize downstream tracking performance is examined further. Numerical simulations are used to establish the validity of certain approximations made previously. These simulations suggest that steady-state analysis is inadequate, and an adaptive threshold optimization scheme is proposed as an alternative. Finally, the original derivation of the Probabilistic Data Association Filter (PDAF), upon which the present work is founded, is augmented to account for finite gate size. (Author).

Book Detection Thresholds for Multi Target Tracking in Clutter

Download or read book Detection Thresholds for Multi Target Tracking in Clutter written by Thomas E. Fortmann and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracking performance depends upon the quality of the measurement data. In the Kalman-Bucy filter and other trackers, this dependence is well-understood in terms of the measurement noise covariance matrix, which specifies the uncertainty in the values of the measurement inputs. When the origin of the measurements is also uncertain, one has the widely- studied problem of data association (or data correlation), and tracking performance depends critically on additional parameters, primarily the probabilities of detection and false alarm. In this paper we derive a modified Riccati equation that quantifies (approximately) the dependence of the state error covariance on these parameters. We also show how to use an ROC curve in conjunction with the above relationship to determine an 'optimal' detection threshold in the signal processing system that provides measurements to the tracker.

Book Advances in Heuristic Signal Processing and Applications

Download or read book Advances in Heuristic Signal Processing and Applications written by Amitava Chatterjee and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been significant developments in the design and application of algorithms for both one-dimensional signal processing and multidimensional signal processing, namely image and video processing, with the recent focus changing from a step-by-step procedure of designing the algorithm first and following up with in-depth analysis and performance improvement to instead applying heuristic-based methods to solve signal-processing problems. In this book the contributing authors demonstrate both general-purpose algorithms and those aimed at solving specialized application problems, with a special emphasis on heuristic iterative optimization methods employing modern evolutionary and swarm intelligence based techniques. The applications considered are in domains such as communications engineering, estimation and tracking, digital filter design, wireless sensor networks, bioelectric signal classification, image denoising, and image feature tracking. The book presents interesting, state-of-the-art methodologies for solving real-world problems and it is a suitable reference for researchers and engineers in the areas of heuristics and signal processing.

Book Moving Objects Detection Using Machine Learning

Download or read book Moving Objects Detection Using Machine Learning written by Navneet Ghedia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how machine learning can detect moving objects in a digital video stream. The authors present different background subtraction approaches, foreground segmentation, and object tracking approaches to accomplish this. They also propose an algorithm that considers a multimodal background subtraction approach that can handle a dynamic background and different constraints. The authors show how the proposed algorithm is able to detect and track 2D & 3D objects in monocular sequences for both indoor and outdoor surveillance environments and at the same time, also able to work satisfactorily in a dynamic background and with challenging constraints. In addition, the shows how the proposed algorithm makes use of parameter optimization and adaptive threshold techniques as intrinsic improvements of the Gaussian Mixture Model. The presented system in the book is also able to handle partial occlusion during object detection and tracking. All the presented work and evaluations were carried out in offline processing with the computation done by a single laptop computer with MATLAB serving as software environment.

Book Adaptive Spatial Temporal Filtering Methods for Clutter Removal and Target Tracking

Download or read book Adaptive Spatial Temporal Filtering Methods for Clutter Removal and Target Tracking written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In space-based infrared ballistic missile defense sensor systems, cluttered backgrounds are typically much more intense than the equivalent sensor noise or the targets being detected. Therefore, the development of efficient clutter removal and target preservation/enhancement algorithms is of crucial importance. To meet customer requirements, the advanced clutter rejection algorithms should provide more than 20 dB improvement in detection sensitivity. We propose an adaptive parametric spatial-temporal filtering technique together with the jitter compensation (scene stabilization). The results of simulations and processing of real data show that the developed adaptive spatial-temporal clutter suppression algorithms allow for efficient clutter rejection in all tested situations. Proposed algorithms completely remove heavy clutter in the presence of substantial jitter and do not require expensive sub-pixel jitter stabilizers. In contrast, spatial-only filters and temporal differencing methods can be used only for weak and relatively correlated clutter. A stand-alone simulator was developed to demonstrate capabilities and performance of various algorithmic approaches. Simulations model various geometries, resolutions, illuminations and meteorological conditions for space-based IR staring sensor systems.
