Abstract: In this work, we address the problem of cross-modal comparison of aerial data
streams. A variety of simulated automobile trajectories are sensed using two
different modalities: full-motion video, and radio-frequency (RF) signals
received by detectors at various locations. The information represented by the
two modalities is compared using self-similarity matrices (SSMs) corresponding
to time-ordered point clouds in feature spaces of each of these data sources;
we note that these feature spaces can be of entirely different scale and
dimensionality. Several metrics for comparing SSMs are explored, including a
cutting-edge time-warping technique that can simultaneously handle local time
warping and partial matches, while also controlling for the change in geometry
between feature spaces of the two modalities. We note that this technique is
quite general, and does not depend on the choice of modalities. In this
particular setting, we demonstrate that the cross-modal distance between SSMs
corresponding to the same trajectory type is smaller than the cross-modal
distance between SSMs corresponding to distinct trajectory types, and we
formalize this observation via precision-recall metrics in experiments.
Finally, we comment on promising implications of these ideas for future
integration into multiple-hypothesis tracking systems.
