Targets that generate multiple measurements at a given instant in time are commonly known as extended targets. These present a challenge for many tracking algorithms, as they violate one of the key assumptions of the standard measurement model. In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed for tracking multiple extended targets in clutter, that is capable of estimating the number of targets, as well the trajectories of their states, comprising the kinematics, measurement rates and extents. The proposed technique is based on modelling the multi-target state as a generalised labelled multi-Bernoulli (GLMB) random finite set (RFS), within which the extended targets are modelled using gamma Gaussian inverse Wishart (GGIW) distributions. A cheaper variant of the algorithm is also proposed, based on the labelled multi-Bernoulli (LMB) filter. The proposed GLMB/LMB-based algorithms are compared with an extended target version of the cardinalised probability hypothesis density (CPHD) filter, and simulation results show that the (G)LMB has improved estimation and tracking performance.

This paper proposes an on-line multiple object tracking algorithm that can operate in unknown background. In a majority of multiple object tracking applications, model parameters for background processes such as clutter and detection are unknown and vary with time, hence the ability of the algorithm to adaptively learn the these parameters is essential in practice. In this work, we detail how the Generalized Labeled Multi Bernouli (GLMB) filter a tractable and provably Bayes optimal multi-object tracker can be tailored to learn clutter and detection parameters on the fly while tracking. Provided that these background model parameters do not fluctuate rapidly compared to the data rate, the proposed algorithm can adapt to the unknown background yielding better tracking performance.
Determining the trajectories of cells and their lineages or ancestries in live-cell experiments are fundamental to the understanding of how cells behave and divide. This paper proposes novel online algorithms for jointly tracking and resolving lineag es of an unknown and time-varying number of cells from time-lapse video data. Our approach involves modeling the cell ensemble as a labeled random finite set with labels representing cell identities and lineages. A spawning model is developed to take into account cell lineages and changes in cell appearance prior to division. We then derive analytic filters to propagate multi-object distributions that contain information on the current cell ensemble including their lineages. We also develop numerical implementations of the resulting multi-object filters. Experiments using simulation, synthetic cell migration video, and real time-lapse sequence, are presented to demonstrate the capability of the solutions.

This paper considers the problem of detecting and tracking multiple maneuvering targets, which suffers from the intractable inference of high-dimensional latent variables that include target kinematic state, target visibility state, motion mode-model association, and data association. A unified message passing algorithm that combines belief propagation (BP) and mean-field (MF) approximation is proposed for simplifying the intractable inference. By assuming conjugate-exponential priors for target kinematic state, target visibility state, and motion mode-model association, the MF approximation decouples the joint inference of target kinematic state, target visibility state, motion mode-model association into individual low-dimensional inference, yielding simple message passing update equations. The BP is exploited to approximate the probabilities of data association events since it is compatible with hard constraints. Finally, the approximate posterior probability distributions are updated iteratively in a closed-loop manner, which is effective for dealing with the coupling issue between the estimations of target kinematic state and target visibility state and decisions on motion mode-model association and data association. The performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by comparing with the well-known multiple maneuvering target tracking algorithms, including interacting multiple model joint probabilistic data association, interacting multiple model hypothesis-oriented multiple hypothesis tracker and multiple model generalized labeled multi-Bernoulli.
This article presents a semantic tracker which simultaneously tracks a single target and recognises its category. In general, it is hard to design a tracking model suitable for all object categories, e.g., a rigid tracker for a car is not suitable fo r a deformable gymnast. Category-based trackers usually achieve superior tracking performance for the objects of that specific category, but have difficulties being generalised. Therefore, we propose a novel unified robust tracking framework which explicitly encodes both generic features and category-based features. The tracker consists of a shared convolutional network (NetS), which feeds into two parallel networks, NetC for classification and NetT for tracking. NetS is pre-trained on ImageNet to serve as a generic feature extractor across the different object categories for NetC and NetT. NetC utilises those features within fully connected layers to classify the object category. NetT has multiple branches, corresponding to multiple categories, to distinguish the tracked object from the background. Since each branch in NetT is trained by the videos of a specific category or groups of similar categories, NetT encodes category-based features for tracking. During online tracking, NetC and NetT jointly determine the target regions with the right category and foreground labels for target estimation. To improve the robustness and precision, NetC and NetT inter-supervise each other and trigger network adaptation when their outputs are ambiguous for the same image regions (i.e., when the category label contradicts the foreground/background classification). We have compared the performance of our tracker to other state-of-the-art trackers on a large-scale tracking benchmark (100 sequences)---the obtained results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed tracker as it outperformed other 38 state-of-the-art tracking algorithms.
We explore the graph approach to contextuality to restate the extended definition of noncontextuality as given by J. Kujala et. al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 150401 (2015)] using graph-theoretical terms. This extended definition avoids the assumption of the pre-sheaf or non-disturbance condition, which states that if two contexts overlap, then the marginal distribution obtained for the intersection must be the same, a restriction that will never be perfectly satisfied in real experiments. With this we are able to derive necessary conditions for extended noncontextuality for any set of random variables based on the geometrical aspects of the graph approach, which can be tested directly with experimental data in any contextuality experiment and which reduce to traditional necessary conditions for noncontextuality if the non-disturbance condition is satisfied.
