The Performance of Small Support Spatial and Temporal Filters for Dim Point Target Detection inIR Image Sequences
نویسنده
چکیده
The effectiveness of small support spatial filters based on mean, median and morphological opening for the detection of scintillating ultra-dim stationary point targets in IR image sequences has been investigated. The effectiveness of two temporal filters was also studied. The filters were applied to two IR image sequences; an aircraft approaching in an uncluttered background, and an aircraft receding in a bright cloudy background. The spatial filters were effective in detecting the target in the benign background, but neither the spatial nor one of the temporal filters were effective in the cluttered environment. A combination of absolute frame differencing and small support spatial filtering to correct for sensor motion was found to give sufficient increase in signal to clutter ratio to allow detection.

متن کاملNonparametric Spectral-Spatial Anomaly Detection
Due to abundant spectral information contained in the hyperspectral images, they are suitable data for anomalous targets detection. The use of spatial features in addition to spectral ones can improve the anomaly detection performance. An anomaly detector, called nonparametric spectral-spatial detector (NSSD), is proposed in this work which utilizes the benefits of spatial features and local st...
متن کاملImproving the Performance of ICA Algorithm for fMRI Simulated Data Analysis Using Temporal and Spatial Filters in the Preprocessing Phase
Introduction: The accuracy of analyzing Functional MRI (fMRI) data is usually decreases in the presence of noise and artifact sources. A common solution in for analyzing fMRI data having high noise is to use suitable preprocessing methods with the aim of data denoising. Some effects of preprocessing methods on the parametric methods such as general linear model (GLM) have previously been evalua...
متن کامل3D Gabor Based Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection
Hyperspectral anomaly detection is one of the main challenging topics in both military and civilian fields. The spectral information contained in a hyperspectral cube provides a high ability for anomaly detection. In addition, the costly spatial information of adjacent pixels such as texture can also improve the discrimination between anomalous targets and background. Most studies miss the wort...
متن کاملFire detection using video sequences in urban out-door environment
Nowadays automated early warning systems are essential in human life. One of these systems is fire detection which plays an important role in surveillance and security systems because the fire can spread quickly and cause great damage to an area. Traditional fire detection methods usually are based on smoke and temperature detectors (sensors). These methods cannot work properly in large space a...
