Autotuning interactive multiple model

This paper presents a novel approach for tracking maneuvering target in the X-Y plane. The algorithm uses the fuzzy if-then rules and the exponential decaying for tuning the process noise covariance in its upscaling and downscaling respectively. A new method of estimating the turn rate is also proposed. This algorithm is compared with the IMM filter using simulated and real data.
