We compute AM-FM models for infrared video frames depicting military targets immersed in structured clutter backgrounds. We show that independent correlation based detection processes can be implemented in the pixel and modulation domains and used to construct useful online track consistency checks that indicate when the detection process has been degraded due to nonstationary evolution of the target signature. Throughout the paper, we use the well-known AMCOM closure sequences as exemplars.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
