The invention provides an adaptive detection and tracking method based on a
Bernoulli filter, and the method comprises the steps: employing a random finite set to model a target state, and describing the Markov process dynamic characteristics of a target based on a
state transition probability; calculating a detection probability and a
false alarm rate by using a Newman Pearson criterion, and modeling measurement as a random finite set; according to the existence probability and the space state of the target at the previous moment, combining the birth probability, the
survival probability and the state transition model of the target, predicting the existence probability and the space state of the target at the current moment; predicting the GOSPA performance of the
Bernoulli filter, modeling a target adaptive detection and tracking problem into an
optimization problem taking a
false alarm rate as an optimization parameter, and achieving the minimization of the GOSPA performance predicted by the
Bernoulli filter by adjusting the
false alarm rate; a golden proportion constant is calculated by initializing a false alarm rate search interval and an allowable error, GOSPA performance is iteratively optimized by using a golden section method, and an optimal false alarm rate and a corresponding
detection threshold value are obtained; a detection result is obtained by using an optimal
detection threshold value, then the detection result is used as input, the target existence probability and the spatial state are recursively updated, the calculation complexity is controlled by
cutting low weight components and combining similar components, and efficient and accurate self-adaptive detection and tracking are achieved.
