Underwater Tracking in the Presence of Modeling Uncertainty
Abstract
This reprint addresses the problem of passive underwater contact tracking in the presence of mismodeling. A configuration is proposed which includes contact state estimation and hypothesis testing coupled with an evidential reasoning capability to resolve uncertainty in modeling assumptions. The Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence is applied to direct the generation of evidence required to classify modeling anomalies and provide compensation. Experimental results are presented that demonstrate the reduction of modeling uncertainty with the accumulation of evidence.
