Adaptive Multi-aspect Target Classification and Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider target classification and detection based on backscattered observations measured from a sequence of targetsensor orientations. The multi-aspect scattered waves from a given target are modeled with a hidden Markov model (HMM). The targets are assumed concealed and the absolute target-sensor orientation is assumed unknown; therefore, it is only possible to control the angular displacements (change in orientation) between consecutive measurements. The performance of the HMM classifiers/detectors is influenced by the choice of the angular displacements, the optimization of which motivates adaptive search strategies developed in this paper, based on entropy-driven optimality criteria. The search proceeds in a sequential fashion. Based on the previous observations and their associated angular displacements, one determines the optimal next displacement to perform an associated observation. The search strategies are detailed and example results presented on adaptive classification and detection of underwater targets.

Target Detection in Bistatic Passive Radars by Using Adaptive Processing Based on Correntropy Cost Function
In this paper a novel method is introduced for target detection in bistatic passive radars which uses the concept of correntropy to distinguish correct targets from false detections. In proposed method the history of each cell of ambiguity function is modeled as a stochastic process. Then the stochastic processes consist the noise are differentiated from those consisting targets by constructing...

متن کاملFeature-based Malicious URL and Attack Type Detection Using Multi-class Classification
Nowadays, malicious URLs are the common threat to the businesses, social networks, net-banking etc. Existing approaches have focused on binary detection i.e. either the URL is malicious or benign. Very few literature is found which focused on the detection of malicious URLs and their attack types. Hence, it becomes necessary to know the attack type and adopt an effective countermeasure. This pa...

This paper gives the description of the TGB system submitted to the Aspect Based Sentiment Analysis Task of SemEval-2016 (Task 5). The system is built on linear binary classifiers for aspect category classification (Slot 1), on lexicon-based detection for opinion target expressions extraction (Slot 2), and on linear multi-class classifiers for sentiment polarity detection (Slot 3). We conducted...
متن کاملNegative Selection Based Data Classification with Flexible Boundaries
One of the most important artificial immune algorithms is negative selection algorithm, which is an anomaly detection and pattern recognition technique; however, recent research has shown the successful application of this algorithm in data classification. Most of the negative selection methods consider deterministic boundaries to distinguish between self and non-self-spaces. In this paper, two...
