We propose a multi-modal object tracking algorithm that combines appearance, motion and audio information in a particle filter. The proposed tracker fuses at the likelihood level ...
Abstract. In recent years, particle filters have emerged as a useful tool that enables the application of Bayesian reasoning to problems requiring dynamic state estimation. The ef...
We study efficient importance sampling techniques for particle filtering (PF) when either (a) the observation likelihood (OL) is frequently multimodal or heavy-tailed, or (b) the s...
Particle filters have been found to be effective in tracking mobile targets in indoor environments. One frequently encountered problem in these settings occurs when the target'...
A new probabilistic background model based on a Hidden Markov Model is presented. The hidden states of the model enable discrimination between foreground, background and shadow. Th...
