The Effect of Blurring on Aircraft Classification by the Moment Method.

Abstract

The memorandum describes an investigation of a technique for automatically identifying aircraft silhouettes. The classification of 132 silhouettes of six different scale model aircraft was studied using data obtained from Ohio State University. The effect of the blurring of these images on the ability of the computer program to classify them is shown as a function of the degree of blurring. A discussion of the applicability of this technique to real-world scenarios is included.
