Furthermore, particle-based approach can distribute the surface sampling points and control its parameters according to the needs of the application. In this paper, we examine several kinds of algorithms presented over the last decades, with the main focus on particle sampling technologies for implicit surface. Therefore, we classify various algorithms into categories, describe main ideas behind each categories, and compare the advantages and shortcomings of the algorithms in each category.展开更多

A modified multi-target track-before-detect(TBD) method was proposed to tackle this issue using a nonstandard point observation model. The method was developed from sequential Monte Carlo(SMC)-based probability hypothesis density(PHD) filter, and it was implemented by modifying the original calculation in update weights of the particles and by adopting an adaptive particle sampling strategy. To efficiently execute the SMC-PHD based TBD method, a fast implementation approach was also presented by partitioning the particles into multiple subsets according to their position coordinates in 2D resolution cells of the sensor. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method for time-varying multi-target tracking using raw observation data.展开更多
