摘要翻译：
数据关联是跟踪中的一个基本问题，是对目标和测量数据之间的对应关系进行推理的问题。本文提出了一种数据关联的图形化模型，并应用一种近似推理方法&信念传播(BP)来估计边缘关联概率。我们证明了BP是保证收敛的，并限定了所需的迭代次数。实验结果表明，在精度和计算复杂度方面，该方法与现有方法相比具有良好的优势。

英文摘要：
  Data association, the problem of reasoning over correspondence between targets and measurements, is a fundamental problem in tracking. This paper presents a graphical model formulation of data association and applies an approximate inference method, belief propagation (BP), to obtain estimates of marginal association probabilities. We prove that BP is guaranteed to converge, and bound the number of iterations necessary. Experiments reveal a favourable comparison to prior methods in terms of accuracy and computational complexity.
