摘要翻译：
本文详细介绍了扩展目标跟踪的研究现状。我们给出了扩展目标跟踪问题的明确定义，并讨论了它与其他类型目标跟踪的界限。接下来，对扩展对象建模的不同方面进行了广泛的讨论。随后，我们给出了两个基本的和被广泛使用的扩展目标跟踪方法-随机矩阵方法和基于Kalman滤波的星凸形状跟踪方法的教程介绍。下一部分讨论了多个扩展对象的跟踪，并阐述了如何使用随机有限集(RFS)和非RFS多对象跟踪器来处理大量可行的关联假设。文章最后总结了当前的应用，重点介绍了四个应用实例，包括摄像机、X波段雷达、光探测与测距(lidar)、红绿蓝深度传感器（RGB-D）。

英文摘要：
  This article provides an elaborate overview of current research in extended object tracking. We provide a clear definition of the extended object tracking problem and discuss its delimitation to other types of object tracking. Next, different aspects of extended object modelling are extensively discussed. Subsequently, we give a tutorial introduction to two basic and well used extended object tracking approaches - the random matrix approach and the Kalman filter-based approach for star-convex shapes. The next part treats the tracking of multiple extended objects and elaborates how the large number of feasible association hypotheses can be tackled using both Random Finite Set (RFS) and Non-RFS multi-object trackers. The article concludes with a summary of current applications, where four example applications involving camera, X-band radar, light detection and ranging (lidar), red-green-blue-depth (RGB-D) sensors are highlighted.
