A Doppler-Based Target Classifier Using Linear Discriminants and Principal Components
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes the design of the automatic target classifier which has been introduced into the AMSTAR Battlefield Surveillance Radar. It discusses the requirements which have driven the design of the classifier, the data which is used to make the classification, the choice of Linear Discriminant Analysis as one of the classification techniques used and the use of Principal Components Analysis to simplify the training of the discriminator. It also discusses the addition of other classes by the use of other data about the targets. It includes a discussion of the testing of the classifier and the performance achieved.

In this paper, we design an attractivealgorithm aiming to classify moving targets includinghuman, animal, vehicle and drone, at groundsurveillance radar systems. The non-stationary reflectedsignal of the targets is represented with a novelmathematical framework based on behavior of thesignal components in reality. We further propose usingthe generalized linear chirp transform for the analysisst...
متن کاملPattern classification of fMRI data: Applications for analysis of spatially distributed cortical networks
The field of fMRI data analysis is rapidly growing in sophistication, particularly in the domain of multivariate pattern classification. However, the interaction between the properties of the analytical model and the parameters of the BOLD signal (e.g. signal magnitude, temporal variance and functional connectivity) is still an open problem. We addressed this problem by evaluating a set of patt...
متن کاملOn Combining Principal Components with Fisher’s Linear Discriminants for Supervised Learning
“The curse of dimensionality” is pertinent to many learning algorithms, and it denotes the drastic increase of computational complexity and classification error in high dimensions. In this paper, principal component analysis (PCA), parametric feature extraction (FE) based on Fisher’s linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and their combination as means of dimensionality reduction are analysed with...
متن کاملCandidates for Synergies: Linear Discriminants versus Principal Components
Movement primitives or synergies have been extracted from human hand movements using several matrix factorization, dimensionality reduction, and classification methods. Principal component analysis (PCA) is widely used to obtain the first few significant eigenvectors of covariance that explain most of the variance of the data. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) is also used as a supervised lear...
متن کاملApplication of Linear Discriminant Analysis to Doppler Classification
In this work the author demonstrated a robust and efficient method for implementing Doppler classification through the use of Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). LDAs were used to reduce dramatically the data dimensionality and thereby eliminate redundancy and improve the efficiency of the classifier. The performance was assessed on a three-class problem of personnel, tracked and wheeled vehicl...
