Multiple maneuvering target data association based on genetic algorithms

Abstract

This paper studies the problem of data association in multiple maneuvering targets locating and tracking. Genetic algorithm is used successfully in solving the complex optimization and the industrial engineering problem. Recently researching on genetic algorithm has attracted a lot of attention. This paper puts forward a way of using genetic algorithms to resolve the problem of multiple target data association. The simulation results show that the algorithm used in this paper is able to avoid the local extremum and the outcome is satisfactory.
