Fault detection and diagnosis (FDI) algorithms are actively being researched for ensuring the integrity and reliability of environment perception sensors in autonomous vehicles. In this paper, a fault detection algorithm based on a multi-sensor perception system composed of radar, camera, and lidar is proposed to guarantee the safety of an autonomous vehicle's perception system. The algorithm utilizes reference generation filters and residual generation filters based on finite impulse response (FIR) filter estimates. By analyzing the residuals generated from the filtered sensor observations and the estimated state errors of individual objects, the algorithm detects faults in the environment perception sensors. The proposed algorithm was evaluated by comparing its performance with a Kalman filter-based algorithm through numerical simulations in a virtual environment. This research could help to ensure the safety and reliability of autonomous vehicles and to enhance the integrity of their environment perception sensors.

We propose a decentralized state estimation method in the multisensor state estimation problem. The proposed method bounds teh maximum energy gain from uknown external disturbances to the estimation errors in the suboptimal case. And we formulate aternative H/sip .inf./ filter gain equatiions with teh idea that the suboptimal H.$^{\infty}$ filter is the special form of Kalman filter filter whose state equations are defined in indefinite inner product spaces. Using alternative filter gain equations we design the decentralized $H^{\infty}$ state estimator which is composed of local filters and central fusion filter that are suboptimal in the $H^{\infty}$ sense. In addition, the proposed update equations between global and local data can reduce unnecessary calculation burden efficently.y.

During the last decades several proposals have been made in literature to use predictive control for inverter control-especially in electrical drives. These algorithms are completely different to the recursive but linear predictive algorithms known from information theory, where closed mathematical equations are used (e.g. Kalman-filters). Only few of the presented schemes have been realized in industrial applications so far. After some further progress, however, the advantage of predictive algorithms might lead to an increased number of industrial implementations in the future. Besides the common basic idea - to use the well-known but strongly non-linear behaviour of inverters to precalculate the best switching times - there are many differences in the details of these proposals. This contribution shows similarities and differences and attempts to design a 'family tree' of predictive control algorithms. This might grow to a first step to a theoretical approach to deal with predictive control schemes in a more generalised way.

In the flood prediction research, it is pointed out that the difficulty of flood prediction is the frequently experienced overestimation of flood peak. That is caused by the rainfall prediction difficulty and the nonlinearity of hydrological phenomena. Even though the former reason will remain still unsolved, but the latter one can be possibly resolved the method of the AMRA (Auto Regressive Moving Average) model for each runoff component as developed by Dr. Hino and Dr. Hasebe. The principle of the method consists of separating though the numerical filters the total runoff time series into long-term, intermediate and short-term components, or ground water flow, interflow, and surface flow components. As a total system, a hydrological system is a non-linear one. However, once it is separated into two or three subsystems, each subsystem may be treated as a linear system. Also the rainfall components into each subsystem a estimated inversely from the runoff component which is separated from the observed flood. That is why flood prediction can be done without rainfall data. In the prediction of surface flow, the Kalman filter will be applicable but this paper shows only impulse function method.

In a target tracking problem the radar glint noise has non-Gaussian heavy-tailed distribution and will seriously affect the target tracking performance. In most nonlinear situations an Extended Robust Kalman Filter(ERKF) can yield acceptable performance as long as the noises are white Gaussian. However, an Extended Robust $H_{\infty}$ Filter (ERHF) can yield acceptable performance when the noises are Laplacian. In this paper, we use the Interacting Multiple Model(IMM) estimator for the problem of target tracking with glint noise. In the IMM method, two filters(ERKF and ERHF) are used in parallel to estimate the state. Computer simulations of a real target tracking shows that hybrid filter used the IMM algorithm has superior performance than a single type filter.

In this paper, we consider the maneuvering detection and target tracking problem in uncertain linear discrete-time systems. The maneuvering detection is based on X$^{2}$ test[2,71, where Kalman filters have been utilized so far. The target tracking is performed by the maneuvering input compensation based on a maximum likelihood estimator. KF has been known to diverge when some modelling errors exist and fail to detect the maneuvering and to track the target in uncertain systems. Thus this paper adopt the FIR filter[l], which is known to be robust to modelling errors, for maneuvering detection and target tracking problem. Various computer simulations show the superior performance of the FIR filter in this problem.

In this paper we discuss an algorithm to discriminate a garget under track against multiple acoustic counter-measure (ACM) sources, based on sequential testings of multiple hypotheses. The ACM sources are separated from the target under track and generate, while drifting, measurements with false range and Doppler information. The purpose of the ACM is to mislead the target tracking and to help the true target evade a pursuer. The proposed algorithm uses as a test statistic a function of the innovation sequences from extended Kalman filters to estimate the target dynamics and the drifting positions of the ACM sources. results of numerical experimenats are presented to show a performance profile of the proposed algorithm.

An improved filter for tracking a maneuvering target is presented. The proposed filter consists of two kalman filters based on different dynamic models and double decision logic. The use of double decision logic for the maneuver onset and ending detection leads to reduction in estimation error. This decision rule is based on evidence theory, Dempster-Shafer theory, which is extended in order to be applicable in the tracking problem. Simulation results show that the proposed filter performs better than IMM at a lower computational load.

This paper deals with the maneuver detection and target tracking problem in uncertain parameter systems using a robust{{{{ { H}_{ } }}}} FIR filter to improve the unacceptable tracking performance due to the parametr uncertainty. The tracking filter used in the current paper is based on the robust{{{{ { H}_{ } }}}} FIR filter proposed by Kwon et al. [1,2] to estimate the state signal in uncertain systems with parameter uncertainty, and the basic scheme of the proposed method is the input estimation approach. Tracking performance of the maneuver detection and target tracking method proposed is compared with other techniques, Bogler allgorithm [4] and FIR tracking filter [2], via some simulations to examplify the good tracking performance of the proposed method over other techniques.
