Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new algorithm is presented for Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) using High Range Resolution (HRR) profiles as opposed to traditional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. ATR performance using SAR images degrades considerably in case of moving targets due to blurring caused in the cross-range domain. ATR based on HRR profiles, which are formed without Fourier transform in the cross-range, is expected to have superior performance for moving targets with the proposed method. One of the major contributions of this project so far has been the utilization of Eigen-templates as ATR features that are obtained via Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) of HRR profiles. SVD analysis of a large class of HRR data revealed that the Range-space eigenvectors corresponding to the largest singular value accounted for more than 90% of target energy. Hence, it has been proposed that the Range-space Eigen-vectors be used as templates for classification. The effectiveness of data normalization and Gaussianization of profile data in improving classification performance is also studied. With extensive simulation studies it is shown that the proposed Eigen-template based ATR approach provides consistent superior performance with recognition rate reaching 99.5% for the four class XPATCH database. This research project is being conducted in direct collaboration with the Sensors Directorate's ATR Assessment Branch, Wright Laboratories, Wright-Patt AFB, Dayton, Ohio, where it is being monitored by Dr. Rob Williams. A primary objective df this collaborative effort is to complement and augment various other ongoing research activities being conducted or supported by the Wright Labs ATR research team.

This book was released on 2013-08-23 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radar Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) and NonCooperative Target Recognition (NCTR) captures material presented by leading international experts at a NATO lecture series and explores both the fundamentals of classification techniques applied to data from a variety of radar modes and selected advanced techniques at the forefront of research. The ability to detect and locate targets by day or night, over wide areas, regardless of weather conditions has long made radar a key sensor in many military and civil applications. However, the ability to automatically and reliably distinguish different targets represents a difficult challenge, although steady progress has been made over the past couple of decades. This book explores both the fundamentals of classification techniques applied to data from a variety of radar modes and selected advanced techniques at the forefront of research. Topics include: the problem as applied to the ground, air and maritime domains; impact of image quality on the overall target recognition performance; performance of different approaches to the classifier algorithm; improvement in performance to be gained when a target can be viewed from more than one perspective; ways in which natural systems perform target recognition; impact of compressive sensing; advances in change detection, including coherent change detection; and challenges and directions for future research.

Download or read book Target Recognition Using Linear Classification of High Range Resolution Radar Profiles written by Ricardo A. Diaz and published by . This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Range Resolution (HRR) radar profiles map three-dimensional target characteristics onto one-dimensional signals that represent reflected radar intensity along target extent. In this thesis, second through fourth statistical moments are extracted from HRR profiles and input to Fisher Linear Discriminant (FLD) classifiers. An iterative classification process is applied that gradually minimizes required a priori knowledge about the target data. It is found that the second through fourth statistical moments of HRR profiles are useful features in the FLD classification of dissimilar targets and they provide reasonable discrimination of similar targets. Greater than 69% correct classification for two-target scenarios and greater than 60% correct classification for three-target scenarios is obtained using a single HRR profile extracted from a full 360-degree aspect angle window. A key contribution of this thesis is the demonstration that simple statistical moment features and simple linear classifiers can be used to effectively classify HRR profiles.

Book excerpt: This final report summarizes the findings of the research, Advanced Automatic Target Recognition, supported by AFOSR grant P4962O-97-I-O523. In this research effort, we have developed a method for detecting buildings from SAR images, so that false alarms due to building returns can be reduced. We consider three scenarios corresponding to incremental data availability from a high-resolution, airborne SAR, multiple SAR images and interferometric SAR. In a single strip-map SAR image, we look for certain characteristics exhibited by buildings in radar imagery, namely the combination of cardinal streaks and supporting shadow, to delineate buildings. We then present a framework for registering multi-pass airborne SAR images and for extracting heights of 3-D structures which produce identifiable linear patterns in them. Finally, given noisy elevation data derived from an interferometric (IF) SAR, buildings are segmented from the ground using a local histogram-based thresholding scheme, consolidated by propagating the thresholds, and refining along their edges to reduce errors. The effectiveness of the building detection and height estimation algorithms is demonstrated using examples of high-resolution SAR data from Lincoln Laboratory's ADTS radar and elevation data derived from Sandia's IPSAR platform. Our results will make possible on-the-fly, context-based exploitation of SAR images.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State-of-the-art research on spectral estimation, feature extraction, and pattern recognition algorithms are presented for radar signal processing and automatic target recognition. Advanced space-time spectral estimation algorithms are presented for multiple moving target feature extraction as well as clutter and jamming suppression for airborne high range resolution (HRR) phased-array radar. A nonparametric adaptive filtering-based approach, referred to as the Gapped-data Amplitude and Phase Estimation (GAPES) algorithm, is proposed for the spectral analysis of gapped data sequences as well as synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging with angle diversity data fusion. A QUasi-parametric ALgorithm for target feature Extraction (QUALE) algorithm is also investigated for angle diversity data fusion. Support Vector Machines (SVMs) as compared with other advanced classifiers in the MSTAR Public Domain Release and HRR data are found to outperform neural networks and matched filters. A new concept to create negative examples from the known target class is presented and shown to tremendously improve the rejection of confusers. Finally, Information Theoretic Learning (ITL) is proposed as a new algorithm to demix HRR signatures of closely parked targets.
