چکیده

In this paper we present a fuzzy system based hyperspectral classi®er for automatic target identi®cation. The system is based on partitioning the spectral band space into clusters using a modi®ed fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm. Classi®cation of each pixel is then carried out by calculating its fuzzy membership in each cluster. The results showed that the fuzzy hyperspectral classi®er is successful in target identi®cation using materials spectrum. Also it provides a fuzzy identi®cation value that can be used later on in the decision-making stage of automatic target recognition (ATR) systems. Ó 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Optimization Framework for a Multiple Classifier System with Non-Registered Targets

A fundamental problem facing the designers of automatic target recognition (ATR) systems is how to deal with out-of-library or non-registered targets. This research extends a mathematical programming framework that selects the optimal classifier ensemble and fusion method across multiple decision thresholds subject to classifier performance constraints. The extended formulation includes treatme...

Information Theoretic Partitioning and Confidence based Weight Assignment for Multi-Classifier Decision Level Fusion in Hyperspectral Target Recognition Applications

There is a growing interest in using multiple sources for automatic target recognition (ATR) applications. One approach is to take multiple, independent observations of a phenomenon and perform a feature level or a decision level fusion for ATR. This paper proposes a method to utilize these types of multi-source fusion techniques to exploit hyperspectral data when only a small number of trainin...

XCS for Fusing Multi-Spectral Data in Automatic Target Recognition

We present our most recent efforts in applying XCS to automatic target recognition (ATR). We place particular emphasis on ATR as a series of linked problems, which include pre-processing of multi-spectral data, detection of objects (in this case, vehicles) in that data, and identification (classification) of those objects. Multi-spectral data contains visual imagery, and additional imagery from...
