This paper considers the distributed group target tracking (DGTT) problem under sensors with limited and different field of views (FoVs). Usually, for the tracking of groups, targets within groups are closely spaced and move in a coordinated manner. These groups can split or merge, and the numbers of targets in groups may be large, which lead to more challenging issues related to data association, filtering and computational complexities. Particularly, these challenges may be further complicated in distributed fusion system architectures. To deal with these difficulties, we propose a consensus-based DGTT method within the belief propagation (BP) framework, which introduces undetected targets... More >

Remote sensing image plays an important role in maritime surveillance, and as a result there is increasingly becoming a prominent focus on the detection and recognition of maritime objects. However, most existing studies in remote sensing image classification pay more attention on the performance of model, thus neglecting the transparency and explainability in it. To address the issue, an explainable classification method based on graph network is proposed in the present study, which seeks to make use of the relationship between objects' regions to infer the category information. First, the local visual attention module is designed to focus on different but important regions of the object. T... More >
