We introduce a novel probabilistic tracking algorithm that incorporates combinatorial data association constraints and model-based track management using variational Bayes.

Online Variational Approximations to non-Exponential Family Change Point Models: With Application to Radar Tracking

no code implementations • NeurIPS 2013 • Ryan D. Turner, Steven Bottone, Clay J. Stanek

We develop variational approximations to the posterior on change point times (formulated as run lengths) for efficient inference when the underlying model is not in the exponential family, and does not have tractable posterior predictive distributions.
