Abstract: We introduce the first unified theory for target
tracking using Multiple Hypothesis Tracking, Topological Data
Analysis, and machine learning. Our string of innovations are
1) robust topological features are used to encode behavioral
information, 2) statistical models are fitted to distributions over
these topological features, and 3) the target type classification
methods of Wigren and Bar Shalom et al. are employed to exploit
the resulting likelihoods for topological features inside of the
tracking procedure. To demonstrate the efficacy of our approach,
we test our procedure on synthetic vehicular data generated by
the Simulation of Urban Mobility package.
