Three Dimensional Cellular Automata for Subpixel Target Detection

Abstract

This project on subpixel target detection relates to research in the optimization of three dimensional computing structures for use in target detection and to research in the reduction of an optimum computing to an efficiently-designed silicon chip. During the work period reported this project concentrated on developing a software package which would permit us to implement three-dimensional cellular logic for target detection on the Macintosh personal computer. The purpose of this package is to emulate target detection in the tetradecahedral tessellation. Results are displayed on the screen and may be printed or stored on disk for later use. Measurements may be made on the contents of the tetradecahedral workspace and stored for later analysis. Keywords: Target detection, Cellular automation, Infrared, Signal processing.
