β¦ Synopsis
The expectation-maximization method is applied to derive a stable tracking algorithm that uses the entire display (image) as its input data, completely avoiding peak picking and other data compression steps required to produce traditional point measurements. The algorithm links a histogram interpretation of the intensity data with the tracking method of probabilistic multihypothesis tracking (PMHT) and is thus referred to as H-PMHT. An example of H-PMHT applied to tracking in bearing on a passive sonar broadband display is provided.

## Abstract A method is proposed for combining the acquired information of several passive sensors in order to obtain twoβdimensional information on the elevation and azimuth angles of the target and to estimate the location and velocity of the moving target in a threeβdimensional space. In the cas
