چکیده

The paper describes an investigation of the problem of identifying objects, in particular ships at sea, in infrared images obtained at a variety of angles and scales. The paper covers theoretical and experimental work relating to the choice of feature vectors to describe the images and the application of the this work to the development of a demonstration system.

Automatic classification of ships from infrared (FLIR) images

The aim of the research presented in this paper is to find out whether automatic classification of ships from Forward Looking InfraRed (FLIR) images is feasible in maritime patrol aircraft. An image processing system has been developed for this task. It includes iterative shading correction and a top hat filter for the detection of the ship. It uses a segmentation algorithm based on the gray va...

Ship Silhouette Recognition Using Principal Components Analysis

We report on an evaluation study of a ship classi er based on the Principal Components Analysis (PCA). A set of ship pro les are used to build a covariance matrix which is diagonalized using the Karhunen-Lo eve transform. A subset of the principal components corresponding to the highest eigenvalues are selected as the ship features space. The recognition process consists in projecting a pro le ...

Iterative infrared ship target segmentation based on multiple features

This paper presents an efficient method for ship target segmentation in infrared (IR) images. It consists of mainly two procedures: iterative image segmentation and ship target selection. First, based on the intensity distribution of an IR image, we design a global background subtraction filter (GBSF) to suppress the background, and an adaptive row mean subtraction filter (ARMSF) to enhance the...

A Real-time Ship Detetion Method in Sar Images Based on Feature Analysis

This paper focuses on the feature analysis of moving ships in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and proposes a detection algorithm for ships. The algorithm first detects all the candidate ships and provides analysis of structural features with the discrete topology. In the analysis of structural features, aspect ratio and ship’s navigation direction can be used to construct feature confiden...

A Direct and Fast Methodology for Ship Recognition in Sentinel-2 Multispectral Imagery

The European Space Agency satellite Sentinel-2 provides multispectral images with pixel sizes down to 10 m. This high resolution allows for ship detection and recognition by determining a number of important ship parameters. We are able to show how a ship position, its heading, length and breadth can be determined down to a subpixel resolution. If the ship is moving, its velocity can also be de...
