This paper develops a robust extended-target multisensor multitarget multi-Bernoulli (ET-MS-MeMBer) filter for enhancing the unsatisfactory quality of measurement partitions arising in the classical ET-MS-MeMBer filter due to increased clutter intensities. Specifically, the proposed method considers the influence of the clutter measurement set by introducing the ratio of the target likelihood to the clutter likelihood. With the constraint of the clutter measurement set, it can obtain better multisensor measurement partitioning results under the original two-step greedy partitioning mechanism. Subsequently, the single-target multisensor likelihood function for the clutter case is derived. Simulation results reveal a favorable comparison to the ET-MS-MeMBer filter in terms of accuracy in estimating the target cardinality and target state under conditions with increased clutter intensities.

This paper considers bearings-only target tracking in clutters with uncertain clutter probability. The traditional shifted Rayleigh filter (SRF), which assumes known clutter probability, may have degraded performance in challenging scenarios. To improve the tracking performance, a variational Bayesian-based adaptive shifted Rayleigh filter (VB-SRF) is proposed in this paper. The target state and the clutter probability are jointly estimated to account for the uncertainty in clutter probability. Performance of the proposed filter is evaluated by comparing with SRF and the probability data association (PDA)-based filters in two scenarios. Simulation results show that the proposed VB-SRF algorithm outperforms the traditional SRF and PDA-based filters especially in complex adverse scenarios in terms of track continuity, track accuracy and robustness with a little higher computation complexity.

There are a large number of sensor nodes in wireless sensor network, whose main function is to process data scientifically, so that it can better sense and cooperate. In the network coverage, it can comprehensively collect the main information of the monitoring object, and send the monitoring data through short-range wireless communication to the gateway. Although there are many applications in WSNs, a multi-Target tracking and detection algorithm and the optimization problem of the wireless sensor networks are discussed in this paper. It can be obviously seen from the simulation results that this node cooperative program using particle CBMeMBer filtering algorithm can perfectly handle multi-target tracking, even if the sensor model is seriously nonlinear. Simulation results show that the tracking - forecasting data association scheme applying GM-CBMeMBer, which is proposed in this paper, runs well in identifying multiple target state, and can improve the estimation accuracy of multiple target state.

An adaptive tracking algorithm based on Extended target Probability Hypothesis Density (ETPHD) filter is proposed for extended target tracking problem with priori unknown target birth intensity.The algorithm is implemented by gaussian mixture, where the target birth intensity is generated by measurement-driven, and the persistent and the newborn targets intensity are respectively predicted and updated. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm improves the performance of the probability hypothesis density filter in the extended target tracking.

For multiple extended target tracking, the accuracy of measurement partitioning directly affects the target tracking performance, so the existing partitioning algorithms tend to use as many partitions as possible to obtain accurate estimates of target number and states. Unfortunately, this may create an intolerable computational burden. What is worse is that the measurement partitioning problem of closely spaced targets is still challenging and difficult to solve well. In view of this, a prediction-driven measurement sub-partitioning (PMS) algorithm is first proposed, in which target predictions are fully utilized to determine the clustering centers for obtaining accurate partitioning results. Due to its concise mathematical forms and favorable properties, redundant measurement partitions can be eliminated so that the computational burden is largely reduced. More importantly, the unreasonable target predictions may be marked and replaced by PMS for solving the so-called cardinality underestimation problem without adding extra measurement partitions. PMS is simple to implement, and based on it, an effective multiple closely spaced extended target tracking approach is easily obtained. Simulation results verify the benefit of what we proposed—it has a much faster tracking speed without degrading the performance compared with other approaches, especially in a closely spaced target tracking scenario.

The existence of clutter, unknown measurement sources, unknown number of targets, and undetected probability are problems for multi-extended target tracking, to address these problems; this paper proposes a gamma-Gaussian-inverse Wishart (GGIW) implementation of a marginal distribution Poisson multi-Bernoulli mixture (MD-PMBM) filter. Unlike existing multiple extended target tracking filters, the GGIW-MD-PMBM filter computes the marginal distribution (MD) and the existence probability of each target, which can shorten the computing time while maintaining good tracking results. The simulation results confirm the validity and reliability of the GGIW-MD-PMBM filter.

Background: In order to make up for the shortcomings of the traditional algorithm, Min-Min and Max-Min algorithm are combined on the basis of the traditional genetic algorithm. Methods: In this paper, a new cloud computing task scheduling algorithm is proposed, which introduces Min-Min and Max-Min algorithm to generate initialization population, and selects task completion time and load balancing as double fitness functions, which improves the quality of initialization population, algorithm search ability and convergence speed. Results: The simulation results show that the algorithm is superior to the traditional genetic algorithm and is an effective cloud computing task scheduling algorithm. Conclusion: Finally, this paper proposes the possibility of the fusion of the two quadratively improved algorithms and completes the preliminary fusion of the algorithm, but the simulation results of the new algorithm are not ideal and need to be further studied.

Modern vehicles are equipped with various sensors, onboard units, and devices such as Application Unit (AU) that support routing and communication. In VANETs, traffic management and Quality of Service (QoS) are the main research dimensions to be considered while designing VANETs architectures. To cope with the issues of QoS faced by the VANETs, we design an efficient SDN-based architecture where we focus on the QoS of VANETs. In this paper, QoS is achieved by a priority-based scheduling algorithm in which we prioritize traffic flow messages in the safety queue and non-safety queue. In the safety queue, the messages are prioritized based on deadline and size using the New Deadline and Size of data method (NDS) with constrained location and deadline. In contrast, the non-safety queue is prioritized based on First Come First Serve (FCFS) method. For the simulation of our proposed scheduling algorithm, we use a well-known cloud computing framework CloudSim toolkit. The simulation results of safety messages show better performance than non-safety messages in terms of execution time.
