A novel prediction method for robust beating heart tracking is proposed. The dual time-varying Fourier series is used to model the heart motion. The frequency parameters and Fourier coefficients in the model are estimated respectively by using a dual Kalman filter scheme. The instantaneous frequencies of breathing and heartbeat motion are measured online from the 3D trajectory of the point of interest using an orthogonal decomposition algorithm. The proposed method is evaluated based on both the simulated signals and the real motion signals, which are measured from the videos recorded using the da Vinci surgical system.

The aim of this study is to introduce and evaluate a dual filter that combines Radial Basis Function neural networks and Kalman filters to enhance the accuracy of numerical wave prediction models. Unlike the existing methods, which focus solely on systematic errors, the proposed framework concurrently targets both systematic and non-systematic parts of forecast errors, significantly reducing the bias and variability in significant wave height predictions. The produced filter is self-adaptive, identifying optimal Radial Basis Function network configurations through an automated process involving various network parameters tuning.

Low-performing GPS receivers, often used in challenging scenarios such as attitude maneuver and attitude rotation, are frequently encountered for micro-nano satellites. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a modified robust adaptive hierarchical filtering algorithm (named IARKF). This algorithm leverages robust adaptive filtering to dynamically adjust the distribution of innovation vectors and employs a fading memory weighted method to estimate measurement noise in real time, thereby enhancing the filter's adaptability to dynamic environments.

This study proposes a dual foot-mounted localisation scheme with a minimum-distance-constraint (MDC) Kalman filter (KF) for human localisation under coloured measurement noise (CMN). The dual foot-mounted localisation employs inertial measurement unit (IMUs), one on each foot, and is intended for human navigation. The KF under CMN (cKF) is then derived from the data-fusion model of the proposed navigation scheme.

Brain tumors present a formidable diagnostic challenge due to their aberrant cell growth. Accurate determination of tumor location and size is paramount for effective diagnosis. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) are pivotal tools in clinical diagnosis, yet tumor segmentation within their images remains challenging, particularly at boundary pixels, owing to limited sensitivity.
