DeepMTT: A deep learning maneuvering target-tracking algorithm based on bidirectional LSTM network.

•Maneuvering movements cannot be timely modeled by pre-defined multiple models.•A DeepMTT network is proposed to learn the maneuvering movements before tracking.•An LAST database is built to offer maneuvering movement data for network training.•The well-trained DeepMTT network is validated by abundant tracking simulations.
