This paper proposes an online multiple object tracker that can operate under unknown detection profile and clutter rate. In a majority of multiple object tracking applications, model parameters for background processes such as clutter and detection are unknown and vary with time; hence, the ability of the algorithm to adaptively learn these parameters is essential in practice. In this paper, we detail how the generalized labeled multibernoulli filter, a tractable and provably Bayes optimal…
