An Improved Decision Fusion Technique to Increase the Performance Level of Hrr Atr Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
According to literature, a significant and up to date research direction to increase the performance level of automatic target recognition (ATR) systems is focused on the use of information coming from an appropriate set of EM sensors and high-quality decision fusion techniques, respectively. Consequently, in this paper a genetic optimized version of Sugeno’s fuzzy integral is discussed. In addition, using a real database belonging to the high-resolution radar (HRR) imagery, the superiority of the proposed decision fusion technique related to its standard version and other well-known decision fusion methods is also demonstrated.

Decision-Level Fusion Performance Improvement From Enhanced HRR Radar Clutter Suppression
Many surveillance systems incorporate High Range Resolution (HRR) radar and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) modes to be able to capture moving and stationary targets. Feature-, signature-, and categorical-aided tracking and Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) applications benefit from HRR radar processing. Successful Simultaneous Tracking and Identification (STID) [6, 12, 65] applications exploit...
متن کاملImproved HRR-ATR using hybridization of HMM and eigen-template-matched filtering
In this paper, a new 1-D hybrid Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) algorithm is developed for High Range Resolution (HRR) profiles. The proposed hybrid algorithm combines EigenTemplate based Matched Filtering (ETMF) and Hidden Markov modeling (HMM) techniques to achieve superior HRR-ATR performance. In the algorithm, each HRR test profile is first scored by ETMF which is then followed by indepe...
