For the scenarios of unknown sensor noise variances, an adaptive multi-target tracking algorithm based on labeled random finite set and variational Bayesian （VB） approximation is proposed. The variational approximation technique is introduced to the labeled multi-Bernoulli （LMB） filter to jointly estimate the states of targets and sensor noise variances. Simulation results show that the proposed method can give unbiased estimation of cardinality and has better performance than the VB probability hypothesis density （VB-PHD） filter and the VB cardinality balanced multi-target multi-Bernoulli （VB-CBMeMBer） filter in harsh situations. The simulations also confirm the robustness of the proposed method against the time-varying noise variances. The computational complexity of proposed method is higher than the VB-PHD and VB-CBMeMBer in extreme cases, while the mean execution times of the three methods are close when targets are well separated.展开更多

The survival and birth measurements are distinguished from the original measurements using the gating technique. Then the survival measurements are used to update both survival and birth targets, and the birth measurements are used to update only the birth targets.Since most clutter measurements do not participate in the update step, the computing time is reduced significantly.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach improves the real-time performance without degradation of filtering performance.展开更多
