  • Abstract
    When local tracks are fused to produce a global track, allowing for dependence, the approximations necessary for economic track representation can result in an unlocalised, posterior track distribution and tracker failure. This paper describes two approaches to robust track fusion. Each produces a modified version of the usual formula which undoes the adverse effects of the approximations. The general principles are applied here to the case of Gaussian mixture modelling of tracks.
