Based on the author's previous work in which the Overlap Coefficient (OC) is used to detect the occlusion, in this paper a method of combining Bhattacharyya Coefficient (BC) and Kalman filter innovation term is proposed as the criteria for jointly detecting the occlusion occurrence. Fragmentation of target is introduced in order to closely monitor the occlusion development. In the course of occlusion, the Kalman predictor is applied to determine the location of the occluded target, and the criterion for checking the re-appearance of the occluded target is also presented. The proposed approach is put to test on a standard video sequence, suggesting the satisfactory performance in multi-target tracking.展开更多

Modern radar tracking system calls for the adaptive signal and data processing algorithm urgently to adapt the uncertainty of the environment. The mechanism of human cognition can help persons cope with the similar diffi-culties in visual tracking. Inspired by human cognition mechanism, a comprehensive method for RMTT is proposed. In the method, the model transition probability in Interacting Multiple Model(IMM) and the validation gate can be adjusted dynamically with target maneuver;the waveform in radar transmitter can vary with the perception of the environment. Experimental results in cluttered scenes show that the proposed algorithm is more accurate for perceiving the environment and targets, and the waveform selection algorithm is better than that with fixed waveform.展开更多

It is still a difficult task to track high speed target with current visual servo system. The improvement of visual servoing scheme is strongly required. A position-based visual servo parallel system is presented for tracking target with high speed. A local Frenet frame is assigned to the sampling point of spatial trajectory. Position estimation is formed by the differential features of intrinsic geometry, and orientation estimation is formed by homogenous transformation. The time spent for searching and processing can be greatly reduced by shifting the window according to features location prediction. The simulation results have demonstrated the ability of the system to track spatial moving object.展开更多
