Abstract: The performance of existing maneuvering target tracking methods for highly maneuvering targets in cluttered environments is unsatisfactory. This paper proposes a hybrid-driven approach for tracking multiple highly maneuvering targets, leveraging the advantages of both data-driven and model-based algorithms. The time-varying constant velocity model is integrated into the Gaussian process (GP) of online learning to improve the performance of GP prediction. This integration is further combined with a generalized probabilistic data association algorithm to realize multi-target tracking. Through the simulations, it has been demonstrated that the hybrid-driven approach exhibits significant performance improvements in comparison with widely used algorithms such as the interactive multi-model method and the data-driven GP motion tracker.
