Abstract

This document discloses system, method, and computer program product embodiments for mitigating the addition of false object information to a track that provides a spatial description of an object, such as a track of radar data or lidar data. The system will analyze two or more frames captured in a relatively small time period and determine whether one or more parameters of an object detected in the frames remain consistent in a specified model. Models that the system may consider include a constant velocity model, a surface model, a constant speed rate model or a constant course rate model. If one or more parameters of the detected object are not consistent over the sequential frames in the specified model, the system may prune the track to exclude one or more of the sequential frames from the track.
