Multi-Objective Tracking Applied to Bat Populations(Rastreamento Multi-Objetivo Aplicado a Populações de Morcegos)
(2016) Rodrigues, Eduardo; Teixeira, João Marcelo; Teichrieb, Veronica; Bernard, Enrico
Multiple target tracking is one of the greatchallenges faced by the computer vision community in lastyears. This paper presents a solution developed in order totrack bats in a clutter environment to account the populationof their colony. The algorithm is able to start detections,treat wrong or lost detections and process the detections inprogress. Tracked targets have their next state estimated byKalman Filter usage. As new measurements are performed,the algorithm can identify which of them are considerednoise, which are new targets and which are new statesof a previously detected target. A 3D viewer was alsoimplemented in order to help the analysis of the trackedflights by researchers in areas like biodiversity and biology.The aim of this paper is to present the operation of thedeveloped system, collaborate with other researchers workingwith tracking of multiple objects and make society aware ofthe importance of preserving the environment, exposing someof the consequences of changing its natural characteristics.The proposed algorithm showed amazing results in the teststages, reaching to overcome the current state of the art.
