We address the problem of tracking the 6-DoF pose of an object while it is being manipulated by a human or a robot. We use a dynamic Bayesian network to perform inference and compute a posterior distribution over the current object pose.…

Extended target tracking estimates the centroid and shape of the target in space and time. In various situations where extended target tracking is applicable, the presence of multiple targets can lead to interference, particularly when they…

Multi-hypothesis tracking is a flexible and intuitive approach to tracking multiple nearby objects. However, the original formulation of its data association step is widely thought to scale poorly with the number of tracked objects. We…

A large-scale multi-object tracker based on the generalised labeled multi-Bernoulli (GLMB) filter is proposed. The algorithm is capable of tracking a very large, unknown and time-varying number of objects simultaneously, in the presence of…

The focus of this paper is to extend Fisher's linear discriminant analysis (LDA) to both densely re-corded functional data and sparsely observed longitudinal data for general $c$-category classification problems. We propose an efficient…

This paper presents a method for robotic monitoring missions in the presence of moving obstacles. Although the scenario map is known, the robot lacks information about the movement of dynamic obstacles during the monitoring mission.…

This paper considers a two-dimensional persistent monitoring problem by controlling movements of second-order agents to minimize some uncertainty metric associated with targets in a dynamic environment. In contrast to common sensing models…

This paper presents a systematic observer design methodology for a class of port-Hamiltonian (pH) systems with state-dependent input matrices. Such systems can model a wide range of electromechanical systems, including magnetic levitation…

Multi-target state estimation refers to estimating the number of targets and their trajectories in a surveillance area using measurements contaminated with noise and clutter. In the Bayesian paradigm, the most common approach to…

This article concerns the challenge of reliable broadband passive sonar target detection and tracking in complex acoustic environments. Addressing this challenge is becoming increasingly crucial for safeguarding underwater infrastructure,…

In Model Predictive Control (MPC), discrepancies between the actual system and the predictive model can lead to substantial tracking errors and significantly degrade performance and reliability. While such discrepancies can be alleviated…

This work is completed on a whim after discussions with my junior colleague. The motion direction angle affects the micro-Doppler spectrum width, thus determining the human motion direction can provide important prior information for…

Evaluating the performance of multi-object tracking (MOT) methods is not straightforward, and existing performance measures fail to consider all the available uncertainty information in the MOT context. This can lead practitioners to select…

We consider a class of uncertain linear time-invariant overparametrized systems affected by bounded disturbances, which are described by a known exosystem with unknown initial conditions. For such systems an exponentially stable extended…

This paper introduces a signal strength-based direction of arrival (DOA) estimation approach for directional sensors that explicitly accounts for missed detections. In traditional phase-based DOA estimation frameworks, negative information…

In this paper, we consider the problem of joint delay-Doppler estimation of moving targets in a passive radar that makes use of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) communication signals. A compressed sensing algorithm is…

Object tracking is a key aspect in many applications such as augmented reality in medicine (e.g. tracking a surgical instrument) or robotics. Squared planar markers have become popular tools for tracking since their pose can be estimated…

In this paper, we introduce a frequency-domain approach to extract information on the trajectory of a moving point source. The method hinges on the analysis of multi-frequency near-field data recorded at one and sparse observation points in…

Widely used methods for analyzing missing data can be biased in small samples. To understand these biases, we evaluate in detail the situation where a small univariate normal sample, with values missing at random, is analyzed using either…

In this paper, we introduce a new adaptive data analysis method to study trend and instantaneous frequency of nonlinear and non-stationary data. This method is inspired by the Empirical Mode Decomposition method (EMD) and the recently…
