As discussed during the user conference earlier, this PR is created to demonstrate an example implementation of JIPDA.
The implemented JIPDA is an implementation of the equations specified in Section 3 of [1]. Note that no consideration of track-birth is taken, since this is handled separately by the PHD filter described in Section 4 of the same paper.
A relation between JPDA and JIPDA is also drawn in Section 4.4 of [2], where I also investigated how we can use JPDA (as well as algorithms such as EHM) as a black box to obtain an implementation of JIPDA. This is also the approach used in the implementation shown in this PR.
Some notes:
