Adaptive Entropy-Driven Sensor Selection in a Camera-LiDAR Particle Filter for Single-Vessel Tracking

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2603.08457v1 Announce Type: cross Robust single-vessel tracking from fixed coastal platforms is hindered by modality-specific degradations: cameras suffer from illumination and visual clutter, while LiDAR performance drops with range and intermittent returns. We present a heterogeneous multi-sensor fusion particle-filter tracker that incorporates an information-gain (entropy-reduction) adaptive sensing policy to select the most informative configuration at each fusion time bin.
