A Robust Trajectory Multi-Bernoulli Filter for Superpositional Sensors
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This paper proposes a trajectory multi-Bernoulli filter applied to the superpositional sensor model for multi-target tracking in the presence of unknown measurement noise. This filter can provide a Multi-Bernoulli approximation of the posterior density on a set of alive trajectories at the current time step. We also provide a Gaussian mixture (GM) implementation of this filter, employing a mixture of Gaussian and inverse Wishart distributions to represent the combined state of measurement noise and target information. Subsequently, the variational Bayesian (VB) method is employed to approximate the posterior distribution, ensuring its form remains consistent with the prior distribution. This method is capable of directly generating trajectory estimates and can jointly estimate both multi-object tracking and measurement noise covariance. The performance of this algorithm is verified through simulation. Finally, a computationally more efficient L-scan approximation is provided. The simulation results indicate that the filter can achieve robust tracking performance, adapting to unknown measurement noise.
