Multitarget Tracking Applications of Dezert-Smarandache Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
The objective of this study is to present two multitarget tracking applications based on Dezert-Smarandache Theory (DSmT) for plausible and paradoxical reasoning: (1) Target Tracking in Cluttered Environment with Generalized Data Association incorporating the advanced concept of generalized data (kinematics and attribute) association to improve track maintenance performance in complicated situations (closely spaced and/or crossing targets), when kinematics data are insufficient for correct decision making.; (2) Estimation of Target Behavior Tendencies it is developed on the principles of DSmT applied to conventional passive radar amplitude measurements, which serve as an evidence for corresponding decision-making procedures. The aim is to present and to approve the ability of DSmT to finalize successfully the decision-making process and to assure awareness about the tendencies of target behavior in case of discrepancies in measurements interpretation.

On the Blackman’s Association Problem
Modern multitarget-multisensor tracking systems involve the development of reliable methods for the data association and the fusion of multiple sensor information, and more specifically the partioning of observations into tracks. This paper discusses and compares the application of Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST) and the Dezert-Smarandache Theory (DSmT) methods to the fusion of multiple sensor att...

In this paper, Generalized Aggregated Uncertainty measure 2 (GAU2), as a newuncertainty measure, is considered to evaluate uncertainty in a localization problem in which cameras’images are used. The theory that is applied to a hierarchical structure for a decision making to combinecameras’ images is Dezert-Smarandache theory. To evaluate decisions, an analysis of uncertainty isexecuted at every...

The objective of this chapter is to present and compare different fusion rules which can be used for Generalized Data Association (GDA) for multitarget tracking (MTT) in clutter. Most of tracking methods including Target Identification (ID) or attribute information are based on classical tracking algorithms such PDAF, JPDAF, MHT, IMM, etc. and either on the Bayesian estimation and prediction of...

متن کاملMultiple Ground Target Tracking and Classification with DSmT
Based on our previous work we propose to track multiple ground targets with GMTI (GroundMoving Target Indicator) sensors as well as with imagery sensors. The scope of this paper is to fuse the attribute type information given by heterogeneous sensors with DSmT (Dezert Smarandache Theory) and to introduce the type results in the tracking process to improve its performances.
