Multiple Hypothesis Real Time Tracking

Main Requirements

The tracking algorithm shall not exceed 100 ms.

The tracking algorithm shall use EKF (Extended Kalman

Filter).

The Hungarian algorithm shall be implemented.

Products

The product is a system for a real time tracking of radar

measurements using the MHT algorithm. The system

receives a txt file in csv format containing plots as the input

and the output of the system is a csv file containing the

tracks of the plots tracking.

We also provide a program which displays in a graph format

the movement of the tracks over time.

project results

MTH is one of the earliest successful algorithms for visual

tracking. It builds a tree of potential track hypotheses for each

candidate target, thereby providing a systematic solution to

the data association problem. The likelihood of each track is

calculated, and the most likely combination of tracks is

selected. MHT is ideally suited to exploiting higher-order

information such as long-term motion, since the entire

track hypothesis can be considered when computing the

likelihood.
