AbstractUltrasound (US) imaging, in contrast to other image guidance techniques, offers the distinct advantage of providing volumetric image data in real-time (4D) without using ionizing radiation. The goal of this study was to perform the first quantitative comparison of three different 4D US systems with fast matrix array probes and real-time data streaming regarding their target tracking accuracy and system latency. Sinusoidal motion of varying amplitudes and frequencies was used to simulate breathing motion with a robotic arm and a static US phantom. US volumes and robot positions were acquired online and stored for retrospective analysis. A template matching approach was used for target localization in the US data. Target motion measured in US was compared to the reference trajectory performed by the robot to determine localization accuracy and system latency. Using the robotic setup, all investigated 4D US systems could detect a moving target with sub-millimeter accuracy. However, especially high system latency increased tracking errors substantially and should be compensated with prediction algorithms for respiratory motion compensation.

Obstacle detection and target tracking are two major issues for intelligent autonomous vehicles. This paper proposes a new scheme to achieve target tracking and real-time obstacle detection of obstacles based on computer vision. ResNet-18 deep learning neural network is utilized for obstacle detection and Yolo-v3 deep learning neural network is employed for real-time target tracking. These two trained models can be deployed on an autonomous vehicle equipped with an NVIDIA Jetson Nano motherboard. The autonomous vehicle moves to avoid obstacles and follow tracked targets by camera. Adjusting the steering and movement of the autonomous vehicle according to the PID algorithm during the movement, therefore, will help the proposed vehicle achieve stable and precise tracking.

The diagonal-matrix-weight IMM (DIMM) algorithm can solve the IMM algorithm confusions of probability density functions (PDFs) and probability masses of stochastic process. Combingandfilter,the Fast-IMM algorithm has a better performance both in accuracy and reducing computational complexity. In order to improve the estimation accuracy and computational complexity,we apply Fast-IMM method to DIMM algorithm. Therefore,A new method, Fast diagonal-matrix-weight IMM (fast-DIMM) algorithm, is proposed in this paper to heighten the real-time application of DIMM algorithm. Simulations indicate that the proposed fast-DIMM algorithm is a competitive alternative algorithm to the IMM algorithm in real time application
