Abstract :
The primary contribution of this paper is the definition of a marginal bearing density function for the measurements produced by a certain track, which forms the theoretical foundation for various proposed improvements. Step-wise implementation of the different measures can provide multiple hypothesis tracking (MHT) applications with the means to use the available computer storage and computation time resources as efficiently as possible. Furthermore, delay times that can occur before processing/pruning are minimized.
