Abstract

Multi-target tracking with radars is a highly challenging problem due to detection artifacts, sensor noise, and interference sources. The traditional signal processing chain is, therefore, a complex combination of various algorithms with several tunable tracking-parameters. Usually, these are initially set by engineers and are independent of the scene tracked. For this reason, they are often non-optimal and generate poorly performing tracking. In this context, scene-adaptive radar processing refers to algorithms that can sense, understand and learn information related to detected targets as well as the environment and adapt its tracking-parameters to optimize the desired goal. In this paper, we propose a Deep Reinforcement Learning framework that guides the scene-adaptive choice of radar tracking-parameters towards an improved performance on multi-target tracking.
