Transition Costs #3

Closed filipetrocadoferreira closed 7 years ago

I'm testing the tracker with a simpler transition model. It is simply euclidean distance between points. The goal of tracker is to minimize the cost right (this means, the euclidean distance between points of trajectory) however this simple approach does not output any result

In short, you need to set a negative observation cost. Have a look at [1] for information on the probabilstic model.

Closing this one for now. You may re-open if your issue cannot be resolved.
