Abstract:

Traditional track segment consecutive association (TSCA) methods are based on the hypothesis target motion model and need to use a lot of prior information. It has many disadvantages such as too many parameters, complicated calculation and long reasoning time. In order to solve the above problems, a generative TSCA method based on the attention mechanism is proposed. Firstly, the module of generating the track situation map is designed, and the original track data is converted into the track situation map as the input of generative adversarial network. Aiming at the problems of track noise and the difficulty in extracting the features of track motion and track interruption, based on the generative adversarial network and the attention mechanism, the track association network is designed to filter out the noise of tracks and accomplish TSCA. The simulation results show that the proposed method is effective and exceeds the existing algorithms in both precision and speed.

Key words: track segment consecutive association (TSCA), generative adversarial network, attention mechanism, track situation map
