Distributed Maximum Likelihood for Simultaneous Self-Localization and Tracking in Sensor Networks

Abstract: We show that the sensor self-localization problem can be cast as a static parameter estimation problem for Hidden Markov Models and we implement fully decentralized versions of the Recursive Maximum Likelihood and on-line Expectation-Maximization algorithms to localize the sensor network simultaneously with target tracking. For linear Gaussian models, our algorithms can be implemented exactly using a distributed version of the Kalman filter and a novel message passing algorithm. The latter allows each node to … Show more

“…In the recent state-of-the-art, there are few important methods for SLAT [6][7][8][9]. In [6], the authors propose a Bayesian filtering approach to update a joint probability density functions (PDF) over the sensor positions, the target track, and the calibration parameters of the network.…”

“…A variational approach, based on mean-field method, is used to factorize the joint PDF, which is then approximated with a Gaussian distribution. An extended Kalman filter (EKF) is used in [8] to track the target while recursive maximum likelihood (ML) and expectation maximization (EM) determine the point estimates of the sensors' positions. A fully scalable distributed implementation is provided via message passing based on consensus propagation.…”

“…In fusion (or, object tracking) networks, localisation/calibration of sensors in a GPS denying environment using point detections of non-cooperative targets [5][6][7] can be treated as an instance of this problem setting. Another example is the estimation of the orientations and positions of nodes in a camera network based on feature detections [8].…”
