Minehunting, ordinance disposal, cable and pipeline relocation, and route survey operations often require the ability to detect and locate objects buried in the seafloor. A high-resolution acoustic subbottom imaging system capable of locating targets buried up to three meters deep, from altitudes of ten-meters or more in a variety of sediments has been tested. The system uses bistatic geometry, wide bandwidth, multiple-beam processing, and multiple-aspect oversampling to create profile imagery of the subbottom with centimeter-level resolution. Multi-aspect data were examined separately and found to provide target classification information using predictable backscatter pattern differences between linear targets (uniform cylindrical cables and pipelines) and small and large discreet lump scatterers. The system uses a separated wide-band transmitter, a poly-vinyl difluoride (PVDF) line-array hydrophone, and a data acquisition system. Sixteen individual channels of data were continuously recorded enabling the formation of steered multiple beams for multiple-aspect examination of target backscatter characteristics in post-processing. Tests were conducted using small buried cylindrical targets ranging in diameter from 12 to 40 millimeters as well as targets-of-opportunity in the sediments. Cylindrical target characteristics and sediment characteristics within a Puget Sound test range were measured independently. Detailed backscatter measurements for a subset of these targets were acquired in an acoustic test tank prior to burial of targets in a natural environment.

In this paper a method for moving targets detection based on Spotlight Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images is proposed and tested in simulation data. To this purpose two moving target detection schemes are considered: The first is based on a bank of Chirp Scaling Algorithms (CSAs), and the second is based on Change Detection (CD) applied to sub-images obtained by splitting the overall aperture into sub-apertures. At the next step, selecting and arranging target focusing center with a new technique based on re-centering phase computation to a reference point for each moving target. Finally Polar Format Algorithm (PFA) is applied to each re-organized raw data to obtain highly focused moving targets individually.

Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has established as an effective deep learning model for hyperspectral image classification by considering both spectral and spatial information. In this study, the performance of two-dimensional (2D) CNN architecture is evaluated at hyperspectral and multispectral resolution. Two types of multispectral data are analyzed viz., original and transformed multispectral data. Hyperspectral bands are transformed to spectral resolution of multispectral bands by averaging the reflectances of specific hyperspectral narrow bands which are falling within the spectral ranges of multispectral bands. The well-known Pavia University dataset and a new dataset of Pear orchard are investigated in this study. In case of Pear orchard dataset, classification is performed with both types of multispectral data. All the experiments are carried out with the same 2D CNN architecture. In case of Pavia University dataset, hyperspectral and transformed multispectral data achieve OA(%) of 94.29 +/- 1.28 and 94.27 +/- 2.01 respectively considering 20% samples as training. In case of Pear orchard dataset, hyperspectral, multispectral and transformed multispectral data achieve OA(%) of 91.59 +/- 0.89, 88.65 +/- 1.35, and 93.24 +/- 0.16 respectively considering 20% samples as training. It is evident that transformed multispectral data, which comprises of inherent hyperspectral information, provides similar or better performance compared to hyperspectral data. Further, with the use of 3D CNN architecture, classification performance improves in case of Pavia University dataset, whereas it remains statistically similar in case of Pear orchard dataset. The present promising results illustrates the performance of CNN even in smalldataset which is comparable to several published state-of-the art results on the same dataset.

The problem of accurately detecting the location of active targets using low-cost machine vision systems is presented, with a requirement for location accuracies greater than 0.5 pixels. Methods of locating bloblike images of active targets are presented, including the calculation of the centroid of binarized versions of the blob, and the fitting of a parametric model to the blobs intensity distribution. Both methods are evaluated experimentally with simulated data and found to provide excellent blob localization. A physical experiment was conducted to evaluate the location accuracy, leading to the conclusion that the performance of the two methods is equivalent, with both providing the capability of locating active targets to an accuracy of 0.25 pixels.< >

A new technique for removal of the wall EM returns in Through-the-Wall Radar Imaging is presented. It is based on the spatial notch-filtering to separate wall and target reflections. The proposed technique forms squint beams at the receiver using a divided aperture. In doing so, it removes the strong wall signature without eliminating those of the targets. The proposed scheme provides desirable 3D target detection which is evaluated using real data examples from Through-the-Wall radar imaging experiments.

The Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is a general signalprocessing method for analyzing nonlinear and non-stationary time series. The central idea of EMD is to decompose a time series into a finite and often small number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). An IMF is defined as any function having the number of extrema and the number of zero-crossings equal (or differing at most by one), and also having symmetric envelopes defined by the local minima, and maxima respectively. The decomposition procedure is adaptive, data-driven, therefore, highly efficient. In this paper, the EMD is first described, and its performance is validated by simulations. The EMD is then applied to the analysis of esophageal manometric time series in gastroesophageal reflux disease. The results show that the EMD may prove to be a vital technique for the analysis of esophageal manometric data.

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic condition that can be diagnosed and monitored by evaluating changes in the gait and arm movement parameters. In the gait movement, each cycle consists of two phases: stance and swing. Using gait analysis techniques, it is possible to get spatiotemporal variables derived from both phases. Objective: In this paper, we compared two techniques: wavelet and peak detection. Previously, the wavelet technique was assessed for the gait phases detection, and peak detection was evaluated for arm swing analysis. These methods were evaluated using a low-cost RGB-D camera as data input source. This comparison could provide a unified and integrated method to analyze gait and arm swing signals. Methods: Twenty-five PD patients and 25 age-matched, healthy subjects were included. Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the continuous variables between groups. Hamming distances and Spearman rank correlation were used to evaluate the agreement between the signals and the spatiotemporal variables obtained by both methods. Results: PD group showed significant reductions in speed (wavelet p=0.001, peak detection p<0.001) and significantly greater swing (wavelet p=0.003, peak detection p=0.005) and stance times (wavelet p=0.003, peak detection p=0.004). Hamming distances showed small differences between the signals obtained by both methods (16 to 18 signal points). A very strong correlation (Spearman rho > 0.8, p<0.05) was found between the spatiotemporal variables obtained by each signalprocessing technique. Conclusion: Wavelet and peak detection techniques showed a high agreement in the signal obtained from gait data. The spatiotemporal variables obtained by both methods showed significant differences between the walking patterns of PD patients and healthy subjects. The peak detection technique can be used for integral motion analysis, providing the identification of the phases in the gait cycle, and arm swing parameters.
