Abstract
In one embodiment, a method of tracking multiple objects with a probabilistic hypothesis density filter is provided. The method includes generating a first intensity by combining a first one or more measurements, wherein a first set of track IDs associated with the first intensity includes track IDs corresponding to respective measurements in the first one or more measurements. A second intensity is generated by combining a second one or more measurements, wherein a second set of track IDs associated with the second intensity includes track IDs corresponding to respective measurements in the second one or more measurements. The first set of track IDs is compared to the second set of track IDs, and the first intensity is selectively merged with the second intensity based on whether any track IDs in the first set of track IDs match any track IDs in the second set of track IDs.
