GPR and reflection seismics share common physical and methodological bases but are sensitive to different subsurface physical properties. The peculiarities of the electromagnetic case impact data acquisition, processing and interpretation. We review multi-offset techniques in GPR applications focusing on similarities and differences through examples taken from different subsurface and target co...

This paper focuses on new signal processing algorithms customized for an air coupled Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) system targeting highway pavements and bridge deck inspections. The GPR hardware consists of a high-voltage pulse generator, a high speed 8 GSps real time data acquisition unit, and a customized field-programmable gate array (FPGA) control element. In comparis...

A GPR survey was carried out in advance of archaeological excavations at Madjedbebe (formerly known as Malakunanja II), a sandstone rock shelter in western Arnhem Land (Australia) containing numerous Aboriginal burials. GPR revealed subsurface patterning of rocks in the shelter deposits and archaeological excavation demonstrated that these were related to burials. Post-excavation, GIS and stati...

Gaussian process regression (GPR) is a popular tool for nonlinear function approximation. Unfortunately, GPR can be difficult to use in practice due to the O(n) memory and O(n) processing requirements for n training data points. We propose a novel approach to scaling up GPR to handle large datasets using the recent concept of doubly stochastic functional gradients. Our approach relies on the fa...

This paper proposes a probabilistic conic mixture model based on a classification expectation maximization algorithm and applies this algorithm to Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) spatial data interpretation. Previous work tackling this problem using Hough transform or neural networks for identifying GPR hyperbolae are unsuitable for on-site applications owing to their computational demands and t...

This literature reviews the work of researchers on ground-penetrating radar (GPR). research consists five sections starting from first section that focuses general application and advantage GPR system in comparison to other types underground detection systems.
 The main function is detect object buried at end full scan, output image represents total signals detected by receiver device. One...

In the development of geophysical methods for unexploded ordnance detection, a very important role is played by UXO test sites, where known and other explosive/nonexplosive items are buried in ground at defined positions. At such various detection can be compared, developed tested. Based on cooperation between Department Applied Geophysics (Comenius University), Institute Forensic Science (Slov...
