In addition to properties such as entropy, information also has value which is situationally dependent. This paper presents a derivation of information value that considers both the context of information, via a fused world belief state, and a system mission. A simulated security operation in a structured environment is implemented, with a system of mobile heterogeneous sensors tasked with information gathering. Information value is then used to determine the expected reward for sensor observations of various points in area of operations. A brief comparison is then made to a selection of pure information gain schemes. From simulation results, it has been found that information value often captures elements of the mission and context not apparent using other information entropy metrics","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132713486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposal to apply cluster analysis to the assignment problem is based on a re-examination of the unique requirements of track-to-track fusion. This paper will present the computational argument for a more sophisticated approach to T2T assignment. It will show how the assignment problem may be recast as a clustering problem. Clustering techniques that present promising approaches to T2T assignment are briefly surveyed.

It is widely recognized that the requirements for the continuous tracking of important targets can only be achieved by incorporating feature data and behavioral information. Consequently, a Dempster-Shafer approach has been applied in the integration of multi-sensor classification with the target behavior so that an estimate of target type may included in the data association decision process. The ID information that may be potentially derived from HRR profiles may be combined with conventional IMM/MHT tracking techniques in order to aid the track-observation association process. Issues such as the inevitable loss of track identity due to track switching as well as the presence of confusers must be addressed. Thus, the paper discusses methods to include the effect of confusers and to efficiently reestablish track identity after a track-switch","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116914500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The detector makes use of mathematical morphology to detect the highlight and the shadow areas within the image, and a fusion scheme to reduce the false alarms due to the sea floor disturbance by declaring a target acquired if an highlight is close to a shadow.

Due primarily to the communication constraints in real systems, some legacy trackers may only provide the local track estimates to the fusion center without any covariance information. In some cases, the local (sensor-level) trackers operate with fixed filter gain and do not have any self assessment of their estimation errors. In other cases, the network conveys a coarsely quantized root mean square (RMS) estimation error of each local tracker. Thus the fusion center needs to solve the track association and fusion problem with incomplete data from legacy local trackers. In this paper a robust track-to-track association and fusion algorithm is described for a distributed tracking system, which accounts for the cross correlation of the estimation error between local tracks in a practical way. Its applicability to real-time and different rate data sources is also discussed by generalizing the algorithms from the existing literature to the case of asynchronous sensors. The problem of track fusion with legacy track sources which lack covariance information is handled by approximating this information through a modified Lyapunov equation. The situation when a coarsely quantized RMS estimation error is available is also discussed. A two-sensor tracking example is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed distributed track fusion algorithm and compared with a centralized interacting multiple model estimator","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124732899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are significant differences between tracking punctiform targets and tracking extended targets. Most of the existing algorithms assume the targets to be punctiform, which is not always suitable. In recent years, two advanced algorithms for tracking extended targets have been developed by the authors-a switching algorithm and the SJPDAF. The switching algorithm uses the Kalman filter and an adapted version of the Viterbi algorithm, which includes certain geometrical characteristics of the problem. The SJPDAF combines the idea of particle filtering with the JPDAF. In this paper we present these two algorithms and compare them with respect to accuracy, speed and robustness in case of crossing targets. We show, that the more recently developed switching algorithm outperforms the SJPDAF regarding these criterions","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"595 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127517356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Dempster-Shafer evidential theory is a very elegant method of mathematically representing this knowledge. The evidential theory knowledge is represented by a frame of discernment with a power-set number of basic belief assignment (BBA) components. For real time implementation this may be a bit of a conundrum especially when supporting many hypotheses in real time systems. A multi/dual probability delineation of Dempster-Shafer evidential theory is presented to overcome the power-set problem for real time implementations. The set of BBAs are mapped via pignistic probability transforms to many sets of probabilities that support the incomplete information set. These sets of probabilities are ordered via the probability information content equation for further processing (fusing, decision making). The problem has been transformed from addressing a power-set of components 2Omega to a multiple number of probability components N Omega greatly simplifying real time implementations. A fusion process demonstrating dispersion in decision space is also presented","PeriodicalId":248061,"journal":{"name":"2006 9th International Conference on Information Fusion","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131972323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
