description | We present in this paper a sequential Monte Carlo methodology for joint detection and tracking of a multiaspect target in image sequences. Unlike the traditional contact/association approach found in the literature, the proposed methodology enables integrated, multiframe target detection and tracking incorporating the statistical models for target aspect, target motion, and background clutter. Two implementations of the proposed algorithm are discussed using, respectively, a resample-move (RS) particle filter and an auxiliary particle filter (APF). Our simulation results suggest that the APF configuration outperforms slightly the RS filter in scenarios of stealthy targets. |
