Abstract :
An intelligent probability hypothesis density (PHD) filter, under the guidance of ant clustering behavior, is proposed and applied to estimate the time-varying number of maneuvering targets and their individual states. Our algorithm consists of rough and fine ant clustering behavior. The former forms approximation of PHD and yields the number of targets; whereas the latter is designed with the help of traditional ant colony optimization algorithm to extract the state of each target. Numerical simulations demonstrate tracking multiple-target capability of our proposed algorithm, and the obtained results are compared with the Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) method under a given benchmark problem.
