In a most recent object tracking research work, applying Convolutional Neural Network and Recurrent Neural Network-based strategies become relevant for resolving the noticeable challenges in it, like, occlusion, motion, object, and camera viewpoint variations, changing several targets, lighting variations. In this paper, the LSTM Network-based Tracking association method has proposed where the technique capable of real-time multi-object tracking by creating one of the useful LSTM networks that associated with tracking, which supports the long term tracking along with solving challenges. The LSTM network is a different neural network defined in Keras as a sequence of layers, where the Sequential classes would be a container for these layers. This purposing network structure builds with the integration of tracking association on Keras neural-network library. The tracking process has been associated with the LSTM Network feature learning output and obtained outstanding real-time detection and tracking performance. In this work, the main focus was learning trackable objects locations, appearance, and motion details, then predicting the feature location of objects on boxes according to their initial position. The performance of the joint object tracking system has shown that the LSTM network is more powerful and capable of working on a real-time multi-object tracking process.

In this thesis, a digital tracking controller is proposed for multi-axis position control system. Tracking and contouring error exist when the machine tool moves along a trajectory in multi-axis system. The proposed scheme enhances the tracking and contouring performance by reducing the errors. Also, an optimal tracking controller reduces the tracking error by the state feedback and the feedforward compensator reduces the effects of a nonlinear disturbance such as friction or dead zone. The proposed control scheme reduces the contour error which occurred when the tool tracks the reference trajectory. Finally, the performance of the proposed controller is exemplified by some simulations and by applying the real XY servo system.

항공관제시스템을 구성하는 하부 시스템중 하나인 감시자료처리시스템(SDP, Surveillance Data Processor)은 항공 감시 레이더 등 다양한 감시 센서로부터 감시자료를 전달 받아 항공기의 항적을 추적하는 시스템으로서, SDP의 항적 추적 성능은 항공기의 안전 운항에 직접적인 영향을 미친다. 따라서 개발과정에서 SDP의 요구 성능에 대한 검증은 필수적이며, 특히 대표적인 다중 센서 다중 타겟 추적(Multi-Sensor Multi-Target Tracking)시스템으로서 다양한 타겟 추적 방법이 존재함에 따라 정량적인 추적 정확도 성능 평가가 중요하게 여겨지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 한국항공우주연구원에서 개발 중인 SDP의 항적 추적 성능 검증을 위한 요구 성능 정의, 테스트 환경 구축, 테스트 결과에 대해 정리하였다.

In multiple object tracking, accurate detection for each of objects that appear sequentially and effective tracking in complicated cases that they are overlapped with each other are very important. In this paper, we propose a multiple object tracking system that has a concrete detection and tracking characteristics by using multi-lateral histogram and SIFT feature extraction algorithm. Especially, by limiting the matching area to object's inside and by utilizing the location informations in the keypoint matching process of SIFT algorithm, we advanced the tracking performance for multiple objects. Based on the experimental results, we found that the proposed tracking system has a robust tracking operation in the complicated environments that multiple objects are frequently overlapped in various of directions.

Multi-target tracking is the main purpose of many video surveillance applications. Recently, multi-target tracking based on the particle filter method has achieved robust results by using the data association process. However, this method requires many calculations and it is inadequate for real time applications, because the number of associations exponentially increases with the number of measurements and targets. In this paper, to reduce the computational cost of the data association process, we propose a novel multi-target tracking method that excludes particle samples in the overlapped predictive region between the target to track and marginal targets. Moreover, to resolve the occlusion problem, we define an occlusion mode with the normal dynamic mode. When the targets are occluded, the mode is switched to the occlusion mode and the samples are propagated by Gaussian noise without the sampling process of the particle filter. Experimental results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed multi-target tracking method even in occlusion.

The performance of a tracking system is greatly increased if multiple types of sensors are combined to achieve the objective of the tracking instead of relying on single type of sensor. To conduct the multi-modal tracking, we have previously developed a multi-modal sensor-based tracking model where acoustic sensors mainly track the objects and visual sensors compensate the tracking errors [1]. In this paper, we find a network synchronization problem appearing in the developed tracking system. The problem is caused by the different location and traffic characteristics of multi-modal sensors and non-synchronized arrival of the captured sensor data at a processing server. To effectively deliver the sensor data, we propose a time-based packet aggregation algorithm where the acoustic sensor data are aggregated based on the sampling time and sent to the server. The delivered acoustic sensor data is then compensated by visual images to correct the tracking errors and such a compensation process improves the tracking accuracy in ideal case. However, in real situations, the tracking improvement from visual compensation can be severely degraded due to the aforementioned network synchronization problem, the impact of which is analyzed by simulations in this paper. To resolve the network synchronization problem, we differentiate the service level of sensor traffic based on Weight Round Robin (WRR) scheduling at the routers. The weighting factor allocated to each queue is calculated by a proposed Delay-based Weight Allocation (DWA) algorithm. From the simulations, we show the traffic differentiation model can mitigate the non-synchronization of sensor data. Finally, we analyze expected traffic behaviors of the tracking system in terms of acoustic sampling interval and visual image size.

비디오 감시 시스템에서 물체의 추적은 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 외부 환경에서 움직이는 물체를 추적하는 방법을 제안한다. 움직이는 물체를 추적하기 위하여 먼저 가중치 차 영상을 구하여 움직이는 물체를 추출한 후 다시 닫힘 연산을 사용하여 잡음을 제거한다. 그리고 추출된 다양한 특징 정보로 매칭하여 움직이는 물체를 추적한다. 제안된 추적 방법은 가중치 차 영상을 사용하여 움직이는 물체를 추적하기에 정지된 물체가 갑자기 움직이거나 갑자기 멈출 때도 정확히 추적할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안한 추적 시스템은 공간위치, 형상과 명암도 특징을 종합하기에 움직이는 물체를 보다 더 효과적으로 추적할 수 있다.

Generally, the conventional tracking algorithms are very limited in the practical applications because of that the computation load is exponentially increased as the number of targets being tracked is increase. Recently, to overcome this kind of limitation, some new tracking methods based on neural network algorithms which have learning and parallel processing capabilities are introduced. By application of neural networks to multi-target tracking problems, the tracking system can be made computationally independent of the number of objects being tracked, through their characteristics of massive parallelism and dense interconnectivity. In this paper, a new neural network tracking algorithm, which has capability of adaptive target tracking with little increase of the amount of calculation under the clutter and noisy environments, is suggested and the possibility of real-time multi-target tracking system based on neural networks is also demonstrated through some good computer simulation results.

In this paper, we present a new approach for automatic detection and tracking for multiple targets. We combine a highest probability data association(HPDA) algorithm for target detection with a particle filter for multiple target tracking. The proposed approach evaluates the probabilities of one-to-one assignments of measurement-to-track and the measurement with the highest probability is selected to be target- originated, and the measurement is used for probabilistic weight update of particle filtering. The performance of the proposed algorithm for target tracking in clutter is compared with the existing clustering algorithm and the sequential monte carlo method for probability hypothesis density(SMC PHD) algorithm for multi-target detection and tracking. Computer simulation studies demonstrate that the HPDA algorithm is robust in performing automatic detection and tracking for multiple targets even though the environment is hostile in terms of high clutter density and low target detection probability.
