Multi-target tracking via mixed integer optimization
Given a set of target detections over several time periods, this paper addresses the multi-target tracking problem (MTT) of optimally assigning detections to targets and estimating the trajectory of the targets over time. MTT has been studied in the literature via predominantly probabilistic …

Best Linear Unbiased Estimation Fusion with Constraints
… to best utilize useful information contained in multiple data sets for the purpose of estimating an unknown quantity — a parameter or a process. Estimation fusion with constraints gives rise to challenging theoretical problems given the observations from multiple geometrically dispersed sensors: …

Parsimonious, Risk-Aware, and Resilient Multi-Robot Coordination
In this dissertation, we study multi-robot coordination in the context of multi-target tracking. Specifically, we are interested in the coordination achieved by means of submodular function optimization. Submodularity encodes the diminishing returns property that arises in multi-robot coordination. …

Exploitation of Modes in Circular Antenna Arrays
… works have demonstrated these aspects of multiple mode generation on circular arrays but in this work we established a basis of how these modes can be put to use for various applications. The mode beams have a special property of being mutually orthogonal to each other. This enables them …
