چکیده

This paper outlines a method to automatically detect targets from sets of pixel-registered visual, thermal , and range images. The method uses operations speciically designed for the diierent kinds of images. It also introduces the morphological operation called \erosion of strength n" as a powerful tool for removal of spurious information. Good preliminary results obtained for detection support its suitability for application to the Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) problem.

Target detection from coregistered visual-thermal-range images

Amethod to automatically detect targets from sets of pixelregistered visual, thermal, and range images is outlined. It uses operations speci cally designed to work on the di erent kinds of images to explote the information given by each of them. Five features are used to distinguish the targets from the clutter: texture, brightness, temperature, surface planarity, and height. The results from i...

Automatic Optic Disc Center and Boundary Detection in Color Fundus Images

Accurately detection of retinal landmarks, like optic disc, is an important step in the computer aided diagnosis frameworks. This paper presents an efficient method for automatic detection of the optic disc’s center and estimating its boundary. The center and initial diameter of optic disc are estimated by employing an ANN classifier. The ANN classifier employs visual features of vessels and th...

Standard edge detection algorithms versus conventional auto-contouring used for a three-dimensional rigid CT-CT matching

Background: To reduce uncertainties of patient positioning, the Computerized Tomography (CT) images acquired at the treatment planning time can be compared with those images obtained during radiation dose delivery. This can be followed during dose delivery procedure as Image Guided radiotherapy (IGRT) to verify the prescribed radiation dose delivery to the target as well as to monitor ...

Pixel-Based Skin Detection for Pornography Filtering

A robust skin detector is the primary need of many fields of computer vision, including face detection, gesture recognition, and pornography filtering. Less than 10 years ago, the first paper on automatic pornography filtering was published. Since then, different researchers claim different color spaces to be the best choice for skin detection in pornography filtering. Unfortunately, no com...

Salient regions detection in satellite images using the combination of MSER local features detector and saliency models

Nowadays, due to quality development of satellite images, automatic target detection on these images has been attracted many researchers' attention. Remote-sensing images follow various geospatial targets; these targets are generally man-made and have a distinctive structure from their surrounding areas. Different methods have been developed for automatic target detection.  In most of these met...
