چکیده

The objective of the Topic Detection and Tracking (TDT) program is to develop technologies that search, organize and structure multilingual, news oriented textual materials from a variety of broadcast news media. This research program uses controlled laboratory simulations of hypothetical systems to test the efficacy of potential technologies, to gauge research progress, and to provide a forum for the exchange of research information. This chapter introduces TDT’s evaluation methodology including: the Linguistic Data Consortium’s TDT corpora, evaluation metrics used in TDT and the five TDT research tasks: Topic Tracking, Link Detection, Topic Detection, First Story Detection, and Story Segmentation.

Doppler and bearing tracking using fuzzy adaptive unscented Kalman filter

The topic of Doppler and Bearing Tracking (DBT) problem is to achieve a target trajectory using the Doppler and Bearing measurements. The difficulty of DBT problem comes from the nonlinearity terms exposed in the measurement equations. Several techniques were studied to deal with this topic, such as the unscented Kalman filter. Nevertheless, the performance of the filter depends directly on the...

Online multiple people tracking-by-detection in crowded scenes

Multiple people detection and tracking is a challenging task in real-world crowded scenes. In this paper, we have presented an online multiple people tracking-by-detection approach with a single camera. We have detected objects with deformable part models and a visual background extractor. In the tracking phase we have used a combination of support vector machine (SVM) person-specific classifie...
