Abstract

An important problem in multi-target tracking is track initiation and termination. The tracking algorithm aims to discriminate false detections caused by various sources of interference from valid detections caused by targets of interest. This is a problem of model order estimation. One approach to solving this problem with the Probabilistic Data Association Filter has been referred to as target visibility. This paper shows how the target visibility model can be incorporated into the Probabilistic Multi-Hypothesis Tracker to provide integrated initiation and termination.
