In underwater surveillance, three-dimensional target tracking is a challenging task. The angles-only measurements (i.e., bearing and elevation) obtained by hull mounted sensors are considered to appraise the target motion parameter. Due to noise in measurements and nonlinearity of the system, it is very hard to find out the target location. For many applications, UKF is best estimator that remaining algorithms. Recently, cubature Kalman filter (CKF) is also popular. It is proposed to use UKF (unscented Kalman filter) and CKF (cubature Kalman filter) algorithms that minimize the noise in measurements. So far, researchers carried out this work (target tracking) in Gaussian noise environment, whereas in this paper same work is carried out for non-Gaussian noise environment. The performance evaluation of the filters using Monte-Carlo simulation and Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) is accomplished and the results are analyzed. Result shows that UKF is well suitable for highly nonlinear systems than CKF.

This paper presents a computationally efficient sensor-fusion algorithm for visual inertial odometry (VIO). The paper utilizes trifocal tensor geometry (TTG) for visual measurement model and a nonlinear deterministic-sampling-based filter known as cubature Kalman filter (CKF) to handle the system nonlinearity. The TTG-based approach is developed to replace the computationally expensive three-dimensional-feature-point reconstruction in the conventional VIO system. This replacement has simplified the system architecture and reduced the processing time significantly. The CKF is formulated for the VIO problem, which helps to achieve a better estimation accuracy and robust performance than the conventional extended Kalman filter (EKF). This paper also addresses the computationally efficient issue associated with Kalman filtering structure using cubature information filter (CIF), the CKF version on information domain. The CIF execution avoids the inverse computation of the high-dimensional innovation covariance matrix, which in turn further improves the computational efficiency of the VIO system. Several experiments use the publicly available datasets for validation and comparing against many other VIO algorithms available in the recent literature. Overall, this proposed algorithm can be implemented as a fast VIO solution for high-speed autonomous robotic systems.
