With the development of science and technology, target tracking was applied to many aspects of people's life, such as missile navigation, tanks localization, the plot monitoring system, robot field operation. Particle filter method dealing with the nonlinear and non-Gaussian system was widely used due to the complexity of the actual environment. This paper uses the resampling technology to reduce the particle degradation appeared in our test. Meanwhile, it compared particle filter with Kalman filter to observe their accuracy .The experiment results show that particle filter is more suitable for complex scene, so particle filter is more practical and feasible on target tracking.

Purpose Marine exploration is becoming an important element of pervasive computing underwater target tracking. Many pervasive techniques are found in current literature, but only scant research has been conducted on their effectiveness in target tracking. Design/methodology/approach This research paper, introduces a Shifted Rayleigh Filter (SHRF) for three-dimensional (3 D) underwater target tracking. A comparison is drawn between the SHRF and previously proven method Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF). Findings SHRF is especially suitable for long-range scenarios to track a target with less solution convergence compared to UKF. In this analysis, the problem of determining the target location and speed from noise corrupted measurements of bearing, elevation by a single moving target is considered. SHRF is generated and its performance is evaluated for the target motion analysis approach. Originality/value The proposed filter performs better than UKF, especially for long-range scenarios. Experimental results from Monte Carlo are provided using MATLAB and the enhancements achieved by the SHRF techniques are evident.

If the inflationary scenario describes our Universe, then it is possible that quantum gravity phenomena could be observed in anisotropy experiments of the microwave background as well as in galaxy clustering data. Primordial gravitational radiation arising from inflation is a consequence of quantum gravity. Moreover, the wavefunction of the Universe is currently being measured by the COBE satellite. A non-Gaussian distribution could be a signature of nonlinear quantum gravity. In fact, the excess power power seen in the APM survey of galaxies can arise from non-Gaussian initial conditions generated during inflation.
