Sensor management in multi-object stochastic systems is a theoretically and computationally challenging problem. This paper presents a new approach to the multi-target multi-sensor control problem within the partially observed Markov decision process (POMDP) framework. We model the multi-object state as a labeled multi-Bernoulli random finite set (RFS), and use the labeled multi-Bernoulli filter in conjunction with minimizing a task-driven control objective function: posterior expected error of cardinality and state (PEECS). A major contribution is a guided search for multi-dimensional optimization in the multi-sensor control command space, using coordinate descent method. In conjunction with the Generalized Covariance Intersection method for multi-sensor fusion, a fast multi-sensor control algorithm is achieved. Numerical studies are presented in several scenarios where numerous controllable (mobile …
