Abstract

In this paper, we present some research results for the MTT (Multiple Target Tracking) problem. Specifically, the approach: Use the Hidden Markov Model HMM (Hidden Markov Model) to identify the target in MTT. To define the target in the data set observed in a noisy environment (with both real and drone targets), the paper used the idea of the Viterbi Algorithm in HMM to determine the hidden part of the model, target part in the set of noisy observations. But MTT only has observed information in the past until the present time, so the reversed variable does not exist, and therefore the algorithm “Forward-Backward” can not apply. In this paper, we give the Forward Algorithm and the Modified Viterbi Algorithm and based on the results that apply to solve the problem of targeting in MTT.
