In this paper, we present an algorithm that allows tracking of a target using measurements obtained from a sensor with limited resolution. The Interacting Multiple Model (IMM) algorithm has been shown to be one of the most cost-effective estimation schemes for hybrid systems. The approach consists of IMM algorithm combined with a coupled version of the Joint Probabilistic Data Association Filter for the target that splits into two targets.

Motion tracking and object segmentation are the most fundamental and critical problems in vision tasks suck as motion analysis. An active contour model, snake, was developed as a useful segmenting and tracking tool for rigid or non-rigid objects. Snake is designed no the basis of snake energies. Segmenting and tracking can be executed successfully by energy minimization. In this research, two new paradigms for segmentation and tracking are suggested. First, because the conventional method uses only intensity information, it is difficult to separate an object from its complex background. Therefore, a new energy and design schemes should be proposed for the better segmentation of objects. Second, conventional snake can be applied in situations where the change between images is small. If a fast moving object exists in successive images, conventional snake will not operate well because the moving object may have large differences in its position or shape, between successive images. Snakes's nodes may also fall into the local minima in their motion to the new positions of the target object in the succeeding image. For robust tracking, the condensation algorithm was adopted to control the parameters of the proposed snake model called "adaptive color snake model(SCSM)". The effectiveness of the ACSM is verified by appropriate simulations and experiments.

In wireless sensor network (WSN) environments, environmental noises are generated by, for example, small passing animals, crickets chirping or foliage blowing and will interfere target detection if the noises are higher than the sensor threshold value. For accurate tracking by acoustic WSNs, these environmental noises should be filtered out before initiating track. This paper presents the effect of environmental noises on target tracking and proposes a new algorithm for the noise mitigation in acoustic WSNs. We find that our noise mitigation algorithm works well even for targets with sensing range shorter than the sensor separation as well as with longer sensing ranges. It is also found that noise duration at each sensor affects the performance of the algorithm. A detection algorithm is also presented to account for the Doppler effect which is an important consideration for tracking higher-speed ground targets. For tracking, we use the weighted sensor position centroid to represent the target position measurement and use the Kalman filter (KF) for tracking.

In this paper, we develop a sliding mode controller that uses a nonlinear sliding manifold for the permanent magnet synchronous motor. The proposed controller makes sure that both currents and velocity tracking error converge into equilibria. Nonlinear sliding manifold consists of current dynamics and nonlinear functions which are designed with velocity tracking error and its integrated term. The nonlinear functions are designed to guarantee that velocity tracking error converge into zero. The closed-loop stability is proven by Lyapunov theory. The effectiveness of proposed method is demonstrated by numerical simulation results.

In this paper, we propose a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy-model-based design for the tracking control of a class of nonlinear underwater glider. By using the partial linearization and the sector nonlinearity, the underwater glider with six degrees of freedom (6 DOF) is modelled by the T-S fuzzy model. The concerned tracking control problem with $H_{\infty}$ performance is converted into the stabilization one for the error dynamics between the given nonlinear underwater glider and the reference time-varying input. Sufficient conditions are derived for the asymptotic stabilizability of the error dynamics in the format of matrix inequality. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design methodology.

When we deal with the image data through camera lens, much works are necessary for removing image distortions and obtaining accurate informations from the raw data. However, the calibration process is very complicated and requires many trials and errors. In this paper, 3 new approach to image processing is presented by developing a H/W vision system with a tracking camera. Using motor control with encoders the proposed tracking method tells us exact displacements of a moving object. Therefore this method does not require any calibration process for pin cusion. Owing to the mobility one camera covers wide ranges and, by lowering its height, the camera also obtains high resolution of the image. We first introduce the structure of the motion analysis system. Then the construced vision system is investigated by some experiments.

In this paper, we propose the target tracking system using fuzzy basis function expansion (FBFN) based on genetic algorithm (GA). In general, the objective of target tracking is to predict the future trajectory of the target based on the past position of the target obtained from the sensor. In the conventional and mathematical method, the parameter uncertainty and the environmental noise may deteriorate the performance of the system. To resolve these problems, we apply artificial intelligent technique to the tracking control of moving targets. The proposed method combines the advantages of both traditional and intelligent technique. The result of numerical simulation shows the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, a new control technique using WIPDC(Weighted Integral Parallel Distributed Compensation) and ISMC(Integral Sliding Mode Control) is proposed for high performance and robust trajectory tracking control of a wheeled mobile robot. The WIPDC reduces the steady-state error by adding a weighted integral controller to the PDC. So, the trajectory tracking control using the WIPDC can obtain more accurate control performance than the PDC. And the ISMC based control input gives the mobile robot to preserve the system dynamics controlled by the WIPDC control input in spite of external disturbances. Therefore, the proposed control method shows a robust and precise trajectory tracking performance.

This paper presents an application of a multiphase interleaved converter in tracking maximum power points (MPPs) of a photovoltaic (PV) panel regardless of environmental variations. Maximum power from the panel was extracted by means of the well-known the perturb-and-observe (P&O) method. The switching control technique used an interleaving scheme based on multi-unit synchronization. The converter performed harmonic attenuation without affecting the tracking speed. This approach is straightforward, reliable and inexpensive, and could be applied to any higher number of switching cells without difficulty.

In trajectory tracking methods, the error values of current position and velocity are compensated to follow the given reference path and velocity. The path tracking for a wheeled mobile robot is treated in this paper. It is very difficult to implement stable trajectory tracking algorithms because mobile robots have kinematically non-holonomic constraints. For solving this problem, a velocity controller is presented in this paper. This velocity controller is designed by a PID controller which could be easily employed. In this case, velocity errors caused by system uncertainties or internal and external disturbances could exist. A neural network is used for compensating the velocity errors. Input variables of this neural network compensator are defined by differences between the velocities of the posture controller and the real velocities of the mobile robot. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed controller.
