High-Resolution Bayes Detection of Dim Moving Point Target in IR Image Sequence Using Probabilistic Data Association Filter

Probabilistic data association (PDA) technique was found its broad applications in Radar target tracking. In this paper, based on the basic idea of PDA, a bayes-rule based high-resolution detection algorithm for dim moving point target in images sequence is presented: derived the formula for computing location-dependent Bayes threshold and posterior association probabilities for every measurement being a true target location. And the comparative performance analysis are also given in this paper.
