[comp.ai.neural-nets] Multi target tracking, using Neural networks

adir@txnew.technion.ac.il (Eyal Carmel) (03/20/91)

My previous request for information, was not clear enough for some readers,
so I shall explain, in more detail, what I'm looking for.

I'm doing my MSC. thesis on the subject of: "Multi traget tracking".
This interesting subject is discussed in many Journals
and publications.  The pioneering work was published by R.W.Sittler
back in 1964.  Since then a lot of articles were published on the
subject.  The last one, I had received, was published just 2 monthes
ago by H.M.Sun, titled: "Manoeuvring multitarget tracking methods".

I am very interested to know about any additional material that
was published, on that subject, using methods of Neural Networks.
Since I am not quite familiar with NN publications, I think
comp.ai.neural-nets, is a good place to post my request.

Thanks, Eyal.

A large portion of the literature is classified; i.e., military secrets!
Perhaps you are already aware of this.  Do you have a U.S. or NATO clearance?

There are a few (target tracking) references for neural nets in the DARPA
report.  If you don't have a copy, I can send copies of the abstracts.
Another source of references in this area is the (U.S.) Defense Technology
Information Center (DTIC) index.

I'd like to know more about your research.  For example, is it limited to
any particular sensor or vision system?
