✦ Synopsis

Particle filtering may cope with non-linear and/or non-Gaussian models. As a counterpart, this technique suffers from an heavy computation cost and cannot always satisfy the real time constraints of applications. A data parallel algorithm is proposed to achieve real-time particle filtering. Extensive results are presented in the passive SONAR tracking context for maneuvering targets.
