The random finite set (RFS) approach provides an elegant Bayesian formulation of the multi-target tracking (MTT) problem without the requirement of explicit data association. In order to improve the performance of the RFS-based filter in radar MTT applications, this paper proposes a time-matching Bayesian filtering framework to deal with the problem caused by the diversity of target sampling times. Based on this framework, we develop a time-matching joint generalized labeled multi-Bernoulli filter and a time-matching probability hypothesis density filter. Simulations are performed by their Gaussian mixture implementations. The results show that the proposed approach can improve the accuracy of target state estimation, as well as the robustness.

A new optimization algorithm of sensor selection is proposed in this paper for decentralized large-scale multi-target tracking (MTT) network within a labeled random finite set (RFS) framework. The method is performed based on a marginalized δ-generalized labeled multi-Bernoulli RFS. The rule of weighted Kullback-Leibler average (KLA) is used to fuse local multi-target densities. A new metric, named as the label assignment (LA) metric, is proposed to measure the distance for two labeled sets. The lower bound of LA metric based mean square error between the labeled multi-target state set and its estimate is taken as the optimized objective function of sensor selection. The proposed bound is obtained by the information inequality to RFS measurement. Then, we present the sequential Monte Carlo and Gaussian mixture implementations for the bound. Another advantage of the bound is that it provides a basis for setting the weights of KLA. The coordinate descent method is proposed to compromise the computational cost of sensor selection and the accuracy of MTT. Simulations verify the effectiveness of our method under different signal-to- noise ratio scenarios.

AbstractProbability hypothesis density (PHD) filter is a suboptimal Bayesian multi-target filter based on random finite set. The Gaussian mixture PHD filter is an analytic solution to the PHD filter for linear Gaussian multi-target models. However, when targets move near each other, the GM-PHD filter cannot correctly estimate the number of targets and their states. To solve the problem, a novel reweighting scheme for closely spaced targets is proposed under the framework of the GM-PHD filter, which can be able to correctly redistribute the weights of closely spaced targets, and effectively improve the multiple target state estimation precision. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can accurately estimate the number of targets and their states, and effectively improve the performance of multi-target tracking algorithm.
