Summary:A new random sampling algorithm for recognition and tracking of an
unknown number of targets and target types is presented. Taking a
Bayesian approach we define a posterior measure on the parameter space
by combining the observed data likelihood with a prior based on airplane
dynamics. The Newtonian force equations governing the airplane motion
are utilized to form the prior density on the airplane positions. The
sampling algorithm based on Jump-diffusion processes, first introduced
by Grenander and Miller (1991), is derived for generating high
probability estimates of target positions, orientations and types from
the posterior measure. Results are presented from its joint
implementation on the Silicon Graphics workstation and the DECmpp SIMD
machine distributing data-simulation, visualization and computation over
network
