Intelligent Illicit Object Detection System for Enhanced Aviation Security
نویسندگان
چکیده
Although aviation security is not a new phenomenon to the world, current threats are much more sophisticated such that it is extremely difficult to detect possible threats of terrorism without severely hindering passenger life style. In order to provide adequate security, a much more sophisticated, reliable, and fast screening technique is needed for passenger identification and baggage examination. In this paper we have proposed an intelligent security technology system that provides the civil aviation authority with maximum security whilst minimising adverse impacts on airlines and airport operations. The proposed system uses appropriate image processing techniques, feature extraction and artificial neural networks for detecting illicit objects in hand luggage.

Investigation of a Classification-based Technique to Detect Illicit Objects for Aviation Security
In this paper we present an initial investigation into the use of a classification-based technique for illicit object detection in aviation security. Current threats in aviation security are becoming more sophisticated in that it is extremely difficult to detect possible threats of terrorism without severely hindering passenger life style. In order to provide adequate security, previous work by...
متن کاملExplosives detection systems (EDS) for aviation security
The detection of explosives and illicit material for the purposes of aviation security is an important area for preventing terrorism and smuggling. A number of di-erent methods of explosive detection have been developed in the past that can detect such material from a very small up to a very large quantity. For the purposes of aviation security, the checks are performed on passengers, their car...
متن کاملAn Intelligent Vision System on a Mobile Manipulator
This article will introduce a robust vision system which was implemented on a mobile manipulator. This robot has to find objects and deliver them to pre specified locations. In the first stage, a method which is named color adjacency method was employed. However, this method needs a large amount of memory and the process is very slow on computers with small memories. Therefore since the previou...
متن کاملEvaluation of CBT for increasing threat detection performance in X-ray screening
The relevance of aviation security has increased dramatically in recent years. Airport security technology has evolved remarkably over the last decade, which is especially evident for state-of-the-art X-ray screening systems. However, such systems will be only as effective as the people who operate them. Recognizing all kinds of prohibited items in X-ray images of passenger bags is a challengin...
