<p>A system and method for imaging target detection includes scanning a target area to produce an image of the target area and discriminating a target by identifying image pixels of similar intensity levels, grouping contiguous pixels with similar intensity levels into regions, calculating a set of features for each region and qualifying regions as possible targets in response to the features; discriminating the background by identifying image pixels of similar intensity levels, grouping contiguous pixels of simlar intensity levels into regions, calculating a set of features for each background region and qualifying background regions as terrain characteristics in response to the features and analyzing the qualified terrain characteristics and qualified target candidates to determine and prioritize targets.</p> |
