In this paper, we analyze features of radar returns from moving targets, introduce the basic concept of time-frequency-Radon transforms, describe the Radon transform for line feature detection, discuss their applications to detection of multiple moving targets in clutter, and demonstrate two examples of moving target detection using simulated radar data.
In this paper, we propose M-CLAFIC (Multilinear Class-Featuring Information Compression) and M-CLAFIC-μ methods for image recognition problems in which data samples are represented by high order image tensors. Operat...

Distributed Sensor Concept - DISCO was proposed [I] for multiplication of individual sensor capabilities through non-coherent cooperative target engagement. the signalprocessing technique for DISCO is Recursive Adaptive Frame Integration of Limited data - RAFIL technique [2] that was initially proposed as a way to improve the SNR [3], reduce data rate [4] and mitigate FPA noise for IR sensors [5]. In DISCO, the RAFIL technique is used in a segmented way, when constituencies of the technique are spatially and temporally separated between individual sensors. Each sensor provides to and receives data from other sensors in the network. In this paper efficiency of DISCO is discussed for acquisition, accurate handover and track correlation of smalltargets.
We introduce a method to determine the quantitative intensity values and sub-pixel locations of closely located smalltargets from noisy fluorescence microscope images. We model the microscope image with a mixture of ...

We consider the problem of detecting manmade objects in range data in the presence of extensive clutter. Such situations arise in, for example, the detection of small structures or vehicles beneath a leaf canopy in range data collected from an airborne platform. this problem calls for an extremely robust detection scheme, and it should be fast. Since most manufactured objects comprise large low-order piecewise smooth surfaces (often planes), we focus on detecting locally planar surfaces. We propose a novel technique we call Distribution Weighted Histograms (DWH), which exploits the inherent geometric distributions of manmade objects versus the random occlusions such as those due to an overhanging leaf canopy. the DWH algorithm performs well under heavy occlusion while being computationally inexpensive (linear complexity). We present extensive experimental results.

A Vertical-Strip Least Mean Squared (VSLMS) algorithm is proposed to enhance the detection of small moving targets in IR image sequences. this algorithm is an improvement over the Two-Dimensional LMS (TDLMS), which is designed to detect smalltargets within highly correlated background of static images. this paper focuses on processing IR image sequences with different background features with layers of sky, sea and land clutter. the VSLMS uses multiple LMS modules and a different scanning method to process individual lines in the IR image sequences. Simulation results show successful enhancement of very smalltargets in an IR mage sequence.

A nonparametric detection scheme, the modified sign detector, may be applied to the discrete time detection of a constant signal in additive m-dependent noise. It is shown how the optimal block size for this detector may be selected for two fidelity criteria, one based on a finite number of samples and the other on the asymptotic limits. these results may then be used to exhibit examples of cases where a small block length is indicated by the finite sample criterion, whereas a large block length is indicated by the asymptotic criterion.

Sensor data fusion has long been recognized as a means to improve target tracking. Common practice assumes that the sensors used are synchronous (i.e., perform the, same operation at the identical time), take measurements at the same time and have no communication delays between sensor platforms and the central processing center. Such assumptions are not valid in practice. this paper removes these assumptions when dealing with multisensor target tracking. In particular, it assumes that the sensors used can have different data rates and communication delays between local and central platforms. A new tracking algorithm using asynchronous sensors is proposed and derived in this paper.

A method is presented that circumvents the combinatorial explosion often assumed to exist when summing probabilities of joint association events in a multiple target tracking context. the approach involves no approximations in the summation and while the number of joint events grows exponentially withthe number of targets, the computational complexity of the approach is substantially less than exponential. Multiple target tracking algorithms that use this summation include mutual exclusion(11,21) in a particle filtering context and the Joint Probabilistic data Association Filter,(7) a Kalman Filter based algorithm. the perceived computational expense associated withthis combinatorial explosion has meant that such algorithms have been restricted to applications involving only a handful of targets. the approach presented here makes it possible to use such algorithms with a large number of targets.
