To address the problem of 3D target tracking with strong maneuverability, on the basis of the modified three-dimensional variable turn (3DVT) model, an adaptive tracking algorithm is proposed by combining with the cubature Kalman filter (CKF) in this paper. Through ideology of real-time identification, the parameters of the model are changed to adjust the state transition matrix and the state noise covariance matrix. Therefore, states of the target are matched in real-time to achieve the purpose of adaptive tracking. Finally, four simulations are analyzed in different settings by the Monte Carlo method. All results show that the proposed algorithm can update parameters of the model and identify motion characteristics in real-time when targets tracking also has a better tracking accuracy.展开更多

Without the ability to track and have PV panels operate at its maximum power point (MPP) entails power losses;resulting in high cost since more panels will be required to provide specified energy needs. To achieve high efficiency and low cost, MPPT has therefore become an imperative in PV systems. In this study, an MPP tracker is modeled using the IC algorithm and its behavior under rapidly changing environmental conditions of temperature and irradiation levels is investigated. This algorithm, based on knowledge of the variation of the conductance of PV cells and the operating point with respect to the voltage and current of the panel calculates the slope of the power characteristics to determine the MPP as the peak of the curve. A simple circuit model of the DC-DC boost converter connected to a PV panel is used in the simulation;and the output of the boost converter is fed through a 3-phase inverter to an electricity grid. The model was simulated and tested using MATLAB/Simulink. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the IC algorithm for tracking the MPP in PV systems operating under rapidly changing temperatures and irradiations with a settling time of 2 seconds.展开更多

The novel algorithm uses a rectangle-shaped section as region of interest (ROI) to represent and track specific objects in videos. The proposed algorithm is constituted by two stages. The first stage seeks to determine the direction of the object’s motion by analyzing the changing regions around the object being tracked between two consecutive frames. Once the direction of the object’s motion has been predicted, it is initialized an iterative process that seeks to minimize a function of dissimilarity in order to find the location of the object being tracked in the next frame. The main advantage of the proposed algorithm is that, unlike existing kernel-based methods, it is immune to highly cluttered conditions. The results obtained by the proposed algorithm show that the tracking process was successfully carried out for a set of color videos with different challenging conditions such as occlusion, illumination changes, cluttered conditions, and object scale changes.展开更多
