Abstract
There is provided a system for tracking objects. The system includes a processor and a memory for storing a plurality of sensory data frames. The processor determines a first hypothesized location for each of the objects in each of the plurality of sensory data frames. For each of the plurality of sensory data frames, the processor determines probabilities that the first hypothesized location of each of the objects in a sensory data frame of the plurality of sensory data frames is the same as the first hypothesized location of another object in an adjacent sensory data frame. The processor computes a first optimal trajectory for each of the objects using an algorithm based on the probabilities, checks the first optimal trajectory for each of the objects, and accepts or rejects the first optimal trajectory for each of the objects.
