چکیده

To improve the performance of a top-hat transformation for infrared small target enhancement, a new class of top-hat transformation through structuring element construction and operation reorganization is proposed. The structuring element construction and operation reorganization are based on the property of the infrared small target image and thus can greatly improve the performance of small target enhancement. Experimental results verified that it was very efficient. © 2008 SPIE and IS&T. DOI: 10.1117/1.2955943

Multi-scale NWTH Filter for Small Target Detection in Infrared images

In this paper, we propose a recursive multiscale new white top-hat (NWTH) filter for small target detection in the infrared (IR) images. At first, NWTH filter based on white top-hat (WTH) transformation is performed for three scales (structure elements) with wide scale interval. For the discrimination of candidate target and background region, Threshold is calculated by using maximum value of t...

FDTD Analysis of Top-Hat Monopole Antennas Loaded with Radially Layered Dielectric

Top-hat monopole antennas loaded with radially layered dielectric are analyzed using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Unlike the mode-matching method (MMM) (which was previously used for analyzing these antennas) the FDTD method enables us to study such structures accurately and easily. Using this method, results can be obtained in a wide frequency band by performing only one ti...

A Small Target Detection Method based on Human Visual System and Confidence Measurement

Robust small target detection of low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is very important in infrared search and track applications.Due to the complex background, current algorithms have some unsolved issues about small target detection capabilities, such as detection rate, false alarm rate and speed. They generally improve one or two of the aforementioned detection capabilities while sacrificing the ...
