Automatic Target Recognizer for the Demo III Program

Abstract

This report describes an algorithm for the recognition of military vehicles in Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR) imagery. The input is a FLIR image, and the output of a detector or clutter rejector listing a number of locations in the image for the recognizer to examine. The output is the same list with the decision of the recognizer appended to each location in the list. The algorithm is based on principal component analysis.
