A Data Fusion System for Object Recognition based on Transferable Belief Models and Kalman Filters
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examine the use of fusing data from multiple data sources for use within object recognition systems. We then continue, to illustrate the system that we have created for our own object recognition needs. The data fusion model that we use is embedded within an object recognition system that analyses simulated FLIR and LADAR data to recognise and track aircraft. The data fusion is based upon the Transferable Belief Model (TBM) and Kalman filters. The system is novel due to the simulation of the sensors and the use of multiple Kalman filters and TBM’s.

We use data fusion in our automatic target recognition (ATR) system to identify and track airbourne objects. The fusion process allows for a much more robust conclusion to be drawn from what may well be incomplete data. The method we use for the fusion process is twofold. The Transferable belief model (TBM), which is derived from Dempster Shafer Theory (DST) is used for matching type and Kalman...
متن کاملApplication of Combined Local Object Based Features and Cluster Fusion for the Behaviors Recognition and Detection of Abnormal Behaviors
In this paper, we propose a novel framework for behaviors recognition and detection of certain types of abnormal behaviors, capable of achieving high detection rates on a variety of real-life scenes. The new proposed approach here is a combination of the location based methods and the object based ones. First, a novel approach is formulated to use optical flow and binary motion video as the loc...

This paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelet transform (WT) and extended Kalman filter (EKF). Input data are first filtered by a wavelet transform via Daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based on variance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. The fused data are finally treated by extended Kalman filter...
