3 An Open Source framework for Tracking and State Estimation ( Stone Soup ) Paul A. Thomas (pathomas@dstl.gov.uk) a, Jordi Barr a, Bhashyam Balaji b, Kruger White c a Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (United Kingdom), b Defence Research and Development Canada (Canada), c Defence Science and Technology Group (Australia). ABSTRACT The ability to detect and unambiguously follow all moving entities in a state-space is important in multiple domains both in defence (e.g. air surveillance, maritime situational awareness, ground moving target indication) and the civil sphere (e.g. astronomy, biology, epidemiology, dispersion modelling). However, tracking and state estimation researchers and practitioners have difficulties recreating state-of-the-art algorithms in order to benchmark their own work. Furthermore, system developers need to assess which algorithms meet operational requirements objectively and exhaustively rather than intuitively or driven by personal favourites. We have therefore commenced the development of a collaborative initiative to create an open source framework for production, demonstration and evaluation of Tracking and State Estimation algorithms. The initiative will develop a (MIT-licensed) software platform for researchers and practitioners to test, verify and benchmark a variety of multi-sensor and multi-object state estimation algorithms. The initiative is supported by four defence laboratories, who will contribute to the development effort for the framework. The tracking and state estimation community will derive significant benefits from this work, including: access to repositories of verified and validated tracking and state estimation algorithms, a framework for the evaluation of multiple algorithms, standardisation of interfaces and access to challenging data sets.

INTRODUCTION Tracking & state estimation is a critical capability for military Situational Awareness (SA). The ability to detect and follow unambiguously all moving entities in a state-space is important for SA in multiple domains ranging from the traditional (e.g. air surveillance, maritime SA, ground moving target indication) to the less conventional (e.g. tracking internet transactions, monitoring changes in sentiment, CBRN dispersion prediction or following disease epidemics). However, researchers and practitioners find difficulties recreating state-of-the-art algorithms in order to benchmark their own work 1. Comparison of new algorithms with alternative solutions is time-consuming, involving recoding of the alternative algorithms from the academic literature. Industrial exploiters of algorithms also need to assess which algorithms meet operational requirements objectively and exhaustively rather than intuitively and driven by personal favourites. The best solution to these issues is to develop an open source tracking and state estimation framework and to populate it with open source components. This is in line with wider open source and open data government initiatives 2,3. The project described in this paper aims to provide a flexible and unified software platform for researchers and engineers to Signal Processing, Sensor/Information Fusion, and Target Recognition XXVI, edited by Ivan Kadar, Proc. of SPIE Vol , SPIE CCC code: X/17/$18 doi: / Proc. of SPIE Vol

ACCESSIBILITY The key to wide adoption of this framework is to make it as accessible as possible. 3.1 Licence Most of the code developed in the Consortium phase of the Stone Soup project will be subject to copyright. All such code will be licensed under the MIT licence 4, which is one of the freest forms of open source licence. Work done by US Government employees as part of their official duties is not subject to copyright and shall contain a disclaimer stating that it is not subject to copyright protection. All source code files shall contain a reproduction of the licence as a prominent boilerplate in the file. During the open phase of the project external contributions may either be subject to copyright or not subject to copyright protection. Contributions subject to copyright protection will be permissible if they are released under any of the following licences: The MIT License 4 ; The BSD 3-Clause license 5 ; The BSD 2-clause license 6 ; The International Astronomical Union's Standards of Fundamental Astronomy License 7. Contributions not subject to copyright shall contain a disclaimer stating that they are not subject to copyright protection. 3.2 Protective marking The open source version of the framework will not be protectively marked, though users are at liberty to download a copy and run it on protected data/scenarios as they wish. 3.3 Releases Ideally, in an open source project, the development team would code in the open 11. However, due to the legacy requirement for release permission from each government lab before each released software version, this would require a culture change. Such a culture change is long overdue and this project should prove the driver for this, but until this happens, Stone Soup will work under the model of shared coding in a private Git repository, coupled with frequent authorised releases. 4. REQUIREMENTS Open source software, unlike the traditional software development model, tends to develop amorphously according to the will and enthusiasm of members of the user/developer community. Therefore, upfront definition of requirements for the open phase of Stone Soup is less valid. However, in order to rapidly build the initial framework in the Consortium phase it is useful to have a set of requirements. These allow the funding stakeholders in the Consortium phase to shape the initial project to suit their objectives, which gives them an initial return on their investment. Of course, the Stone Soup consortium phase is more concerned with building a framework that is compatible with future algorithms, data, metrics, simulators and sensor models, than actually populating these elements. The requirements, therefore, relate to compatibility with specified classes of algorithm, types of data, types of model, etc., that might be added in the open phase; rather than requiring specific functions to be added immediately. These types of requirement will drive the data model inside the Stone Soup framework. For example, the funding stakeholders for the consortium phase might decide that, although (of course) they would prefer compatibility with all types of algorithm, compatibility with certain algorithm classes have a higher priority for the initial work on the framework. This would drive the data model to ensure compatibility with these classes first. Proc. of SPIE Vol
7 1 4.1 Use Cases In order to frame the requirements, the project team constructed three Use Cases. As Stone Soup is open source software, where the community is characterised as user/developers rather than simply users, the use cases contain activities associated with code development. The use cases are: Analyst A common analysis use case involves a task to evaluate the efficacy of a recently-developed novel state-estimation algorithm by a Tracking Evaluator. The evaluator has a technical knowledge of the field, but not a deep understanding of the algorithm, or its theoretical underpinnings. The evaluator is able to receive a Stone Soup compatible algorithm from the developer and download standard verified benchmarking algorithms, test data, and some relevant metrics. In this way they are able to form a judgement on the algorithm, impartially, and with pertinence to their problem. Algorithm developer Provides algo thm Downloads relevant metrics I Tracking Evaluator Uses standard test dataset Evaluates Stone Soup Component developer An algorithm developer is at work on a bleeding-edge multi-sensor, multi-target tracking (MTT) algorithm. The developer codes up the algorithm in Python and is busy writing up their results for publication in a top journal. They are able to access standard, well-used, MTT algorithms in the Stone Soup repository. At the same time they can access appropriate data and some useful metrics. With this repository, the developer is able to reproduce that others have run and to demonstrate impressive margin. The results are published no doubt to much acclaim. The developer may wish to upload their algorithm to the Stone Soup repository in order to benefit the wider tracking community. that the new algorithm does indeed outperform the current state of the art by an the same experiment Proc. of SPIE Vol

This modification must be associated with an update to the software documentation. Both these elements are uploaded to the Stone Soup (Git) repository. Perhaps prompted by the upload or perhaps during a scheduled release, the moderator authorises the new release. The release process involves retrieval of code from version control and running a script that pulls dependencies, builds and tests the latest code. If the build is for release, the script will also collate the relevant information to populate a Release Note, including the commit ID, the test results, the changes to the code since last release and any outstanding and fixed issues. The master branch will be used and tagged in Git to ensure every release can be replicated. Proc. of SPIE Vol
9 4.2 Algorithms Priority for the initial phases of Stone Soup will be to ensure compatibility with the following generic algorithm types: Filtering algorithms: Discrete-Time State and Measurement Models o Standard Kalman Filter for the Linear State and Measurement Model o Extended Kalman Filter o Derivative-free Kalman Filters Particle Filter Class of algorithms o Random Particle Filters o Deterministic Particle Filters Multiple Model filtering algorithms for Kalman filter class of algorithms 4.3 Data Model These different algorithms, at the most basic level, are attempting to represent a dynamic system. A general dynamic system consists of state and measurement models, either of which may be linear or non-linear (noting that the system might be time-varying; i.e. the state model may change with time, the measurement model may change with time or the state and measurement models may explicitly depend on time). The fundamental requirement of Stone Soup is to enable the comparison of different algorithmic approaches against the same data or simulated scenario. Thus algorithms must be swappable at the state and measurement model level. Therefore, key to the success of the framework is the creation of an underlying data model which enables algorithm swappability across all the supported algorithm classes and can cope with all the supported data types. This is more complex than it seems because the algorithms represent uncertainty in different ways, e.g. algorithms based around the Kalman filter model a target state distribution as a mixture of one or more Gaussian distributions, versus particle filters which represent the distribution by a set of weighted samples. Furthermore, the data model must support manipulation of a measurement model via data from a variety of data sources, in effect data swappability, across range and bearing, bearings only, range only, and/or categorical (identity) data. 4.4 Data Priority for the initial phases of Stone Soup will be to enable the use of the following data types. This involves creation of an appropriate data model in the framework for handling the data and making available representative data sets in the repository. The initial data types will be: Airborne radar detection data. This could be in 2D or 3D, from a rotating radar or from a planar array. Coincident AIS data EO/IR data (which typically is reasonably accurate in bearing but has poor accuracy or no information about range) The intention is to build wider compatibility with further data types and provide more example data sets, as the project progresses. 4.5 Metrics Assessment of alternative Tracking and State Estimation algorithms requires a means of objective evaluation using a set of metrics which correspond to characteristics of interest to operational systems 16. In certain circumstances knowledge of the actual number of entities and their states may be available such as when simulations include the state of entities, sensor data and implementation of tracking and state estimation algorithms. In other circumstances knowledge of the actual number of entities and their states may not be available. Priority for the initial phases of Stone Soup will be to enable assessments in the presence of entity truth state information. In this case, an absolute evaluation of each alternative algorithm can be conducted by comparing the tracking and state estimation output against the truth data. Typically, a data association approach is first used to associate track data with entity truth data 16 Subsequently, performance metrics can be applied to quantify tracking characteristics such as the following: Proc. of SPIE Vol
10 Initiation of a track following the first appearance of an entity Accuracy of a track estimate compared to the state of an entity Continuity of a track during the time evolution of the state of an entity Existence of false tracks which are tracks that do not correspond to entities of interest Credibility of a track estimate and its estimation uncertainty compared to the state of an entity 17 As with other aspects of Stone Soup, the intention is to develop further performance metrics as the project progresses. 5. DEVELOPER GUIDE The Stone Soup project aims to provide an environment which is as open and inclusive as possible to contributions from the broad tracking community. However, some broad development guidance is required in order to ensure a minimum quality standard. The Stone Soup Consortium phase will implement a standard body of developer guidance that is defined in the Stone Soup Requirements Document 10. This provides guidance on the following: Documentation / comments Code Quality Interfaces to and dependencies on external code Extensibility and reuse of algorithms Unit Tests 6. JOINING IN The Stone Soup project would welcome additional commitments of developer resources during the Consortium Phase. The minimum meaningful commitment is 0.5 x developer year per year. This is open to all types of contributing agency; e.g. Government, Industry or Academia, in both the Defence and Civil sectors. Agencies willing to make this level of commitment would gain membership of the Requirements Panel, shaping the software to their needs. Benefits to being part of the Consortium Phase are: Influence on the development of what (the authors hope) will become an academic standard open architecture o This supports the most governments visions of making greater use of open systems. Significant gearing on algorithm and testbed development o Several pledges of support of manpower have so far been received from government agencies. Ability to influence the international tracking and state estimation community o Leading the community towards next-generation tracking and state estimation approaches, scenarios and solutions.

The name Stone Soup refers to an old folk story 13, 14, 15, and many more, in which a traveller persuades the local people of a village into collaborating to share their food. The story: A traveller arrives in a village, carrying nothing more than an empty cooking pot. Upon arrival, the discovers the village is undergoing a famine and everyone is hungry. So the traveller goes to a stream and fills the pot with water, drops a large stone in it, and places the pot over a fire. One of the villagers becomes curious and asks what is happening. The traveller answers that "stone soup" is being made and that, it is very nutritious, although it still needs a little bit of garnish to improve the flavour. The villager does not mind parting with an old cabbage so that is added to the soup. Another villager walks by, inquiring about the pot, and the traveller again mentions their stone soup which has not reached its full potential yet. The villager hands them some scraps to help them out. More and more villagers walk by, Proc. of SPIE Vol
11 each adding meat, potatoes, etc, etc. Finally, the stone (being inedible) is removed from the pot, and a delicious and nourishing pot of soup is enjoyed by all. Moral: By working together, with everyone contributing what they can, a greater good is achieved Of course, in the case of the original story the soup is consumed. However in the case of a software project, the output from the collaboration will remain to benefit everyone into the future. 8. SUMMARY Stone Soup is a collaborative initiative to create an open source framework for comparison of tracking and state estimation algorithms, data, metrics, simulators and sensor models. The initiative will develop a software platform for researchers and practitioners to test, verify and benchmark multi-sensor and multi-object state estimation algorithms. The initiative is split into two phases, Consortium and Open, with the Consortium phase being supported by a number of government defence laboratories, who will contribute to the development effort for the framework. The Open phase will build upon and existing repository which will be drawn from The Tracker Component Library 5, published on Git with the addition of algorithms from the academic community. The authors hope this will become an academic standard open architecture. Code developed in the Consortium phase of the Stone Soup project will be not protectively marked and released under the MIT license, where possible. Requirements are being developed currently and are driven by three use cases; Analyst, Component developer and Framework developer. Developer guidance is also being written to ensure a minimum software quality standard. We predict that the tracking and state estimation community will derive significant benefits from this work, including: access to a repository of tracking and state estimation algorithms, framework for evaluation of multiple algorithms and access to challenging data sets. The authors encourage contributions of developer time to assist in building the framework. Any interested party should contact the corresponding author. REFERENCES [1] P.

It is highly desirable that the abstract of classified documents be unclassified. Each paragraph of the abstract shall begin with an indication of the security classification of the information in the paragraph (unless the document itself is unclassified) represented as (S), (C), (R), or (U). It is not necessary to include here abstracts in both official languages unless the text is bilingual.) The ability to detect and unambiguously follow all moving entities in a state-space is important in multiple domains both in defence (e.g. air surveillance, maritime situational awareness, ground moving target indication) and the civil sphere (e.g. astronomy, biology, epidemiology, dispersion modelling). However, tracking and state estimation researchers and practitioners have difficulties recreating state-of-the-art algorithms in order to benchmark their own work. Furthermore, system developers need to assess which algorithms meet operational requirements objectively and exhaustively rather than intuitively or driven by personal favourites. We have therefore commenced the development of a collaborative initiative to create an open source framework for production, demonstration and evaluation of Tracking and State Estimation algorithms. The initiative will develop a (MIT-licensed) software platform for researchers and practitioners to test, verify and benchmark a variety of multi-sensor and multiobject state estimation algorithms. The initiative is supported by four defence laboratories, who will contribute to the development effort for the framework. The tracking and state estimation community will derive significant benefits from this work, including: access to repositories of verified and validated tracking and state estimation algorithms, a framework for the evaluation of multiple algorithms, standardisation of interfaces and access to challenging data sets. 13.
