Comparative study of maximum average correlation height filter variants using ladar imagery

Abstract: We present a study of a family of maximum average correlation height (MACH) filters. MACH filters were introduced by Mahalanobis et al., and several modifications such as the extended MACH (EMACH) and generalized MACH (GMACH) have been introduced to enhance the utility of the MACH filter approach. A comparison between the different filtering approaches and processing techniques is presented for the specific case of laser radar (ladar) imagery. The comparison utilizes both synthetic data for training and testin… Show more

“…the ACE and ONV, also need to be balanced to better suit different application scenarios. Thus, based on Refregier's approach on optimal trade-off [36] filters, Mahalanobis et al designed the optimal-tradeoff [37,38] maximum average correlation height (OT-MACH) filter, which minimises the average correlation height criterion, holding the others constant. By adjusting the values of the three non-negative parameters of α,β and γ (0 ≤ α,β,γ ≤ 1), we control the OT-MACH filter's behaviour to match different application requirements.…”

“…Over the last two decades, several statistical-and artificial intelligence-based detection techniques have been investigated. Mahalanobis et al 9,10 defined and utilized quadratic correlation filters for target detection and discrimination using the Fukunaga-Koontz transform where shift invariance is inherently obtained and no pixel-based feature extraction or preprocessing is required. In addition, neural network-based target recognition algorithms have been developed and applied for SAR images.…”
