Abstract: In various applications of computer vision, nonlinearity and non-Gaussianity must be considered to have an accurate and realistic modeling. In this sense, particle filter is preferred for tracking. In this paper, a modified particle filter which takes the direction of the vehicle into account and distributes the particles according an automatic thresholding scheme is used. After obtaining the vehicle direction, particles are weighted according to their angular similarities to the vehicle. Particles having angular distance greater than a threshold are eliminated. Thus, the remained particles that are moving in same or similar direction with vehicle, increase their own probability of likelihood. This threshold is decided online while the algorithm runs. Depending on the number of particles used, this scheme increases or decreases the threshold. This scheme prevents the system from failures due to insufficient number of particles and also from using excessive number of particles. Proposed

Abstract: Information systems management is challenged to deliver robust and reliable solutions that make business activities possible on a daily basis. at the same time systems and infrastructures should support achieving strategic goals. Information technology is expected to be flexible even in turbulent environments, making it possible to rapidly create new business and take advantage of business opportunities in the best possible way. Clearly, this is a significant challenge for information systems management, and calls for understanding of business goals, strategies, and the capabilities that information systems potentially provide. Overall, information systems management is a challenge which is often connected to integration of business and technology in the organization. Business managers are seldom technology experts, and vice versa. Accordingly, there is a need for understanding what technology, infrastructure and information systems in the organization can do to support business goals.
