  • Abstract
    The Histogram PMHT is a parametric track-before-detect method that has good detection performance and low computation complexity. However, the method assumes a known clutter distribution. This paper introduces a method for learning a non-uniform clutter map where the map is represented as a mixture of parameterised components. The modified Histogram PMHT is compared with the uniform clutter model using airborne imagery.
