Bayesian Multiple Target Track 2nd Ed

Mathematicians develop the mathematical theory of multiple target tracking from a standard Bayesian point of view. Within the context of a Bayesian inference problem, they develop the theory of single-target tracking, multiple-target tracking, and likelihood ratio detection and tracking. The second edition incorporates changes in the field by describing a basic particle filter that implements Bayesian single-target recursion, presenting three algorithms that provide approximate solutions to multiple-target tracking problems, including new information on multi-target intensity filters and the maximum a posteriori penalty function technique, and making other changes.
