- hypothesise(track, detections, timestamp, **kwargs)[source]
Evaluate and return all track association hypotheses.
For a given track and a set of N detections, return a MultipleHypothesis with N+1 detections (first detection is a ‘MissedDetection’), each with an associated probability. Probabilities are assumed to be exhaustive (sum to 1) and mutually exclusive (two detections cannot be the correct association at the same time).
Detection 0: missed detection, none of the detections are associated with the track. Detection \(i, i \in {1...N}\): detection i is associated with the track.
The probabilities for these detections are calculated as follow:
\[\begin{split}\beta_i(k) = \begin{cases} \frac{\mathcal{L}_{i}(k)}{1-P_{D}P_{G}+\sum_{j=1}^{m(k)} \mathcal{L}_{j}(k)}, \quad i=1,...,m(k) \\ \frac{1-P_{D}P_{G}}{1-P_{D}P_{G}+\sum_{j=1}^{m(k)} \mathcal{L}_{j}(k)}, \quad i=0 \end{cases}\end{split}\]where
\[\mathcal{L}_{i}(k) = \frac{\mathcal{N}[z_{i}(k);\hat{z}(k|k-1), S(k)]P_{D}}{\lambda}\]\(\lambda\) is the clutter density
\(P_{D}\) is the detection probability
\(P_{G}\) is the gate probability
\(\mathcal{N}[z_{i}(k);\hat{z}(k|k-1),S(k)]\) is the likelihood ratio of the measurement \(z_{i}(k)\) originating from the track target rather than the clutter.
NOTE: Since all probabilities have the same denominator and are normalized later, the denominator can be discarded.
