Aerial Video

Moving target detection plays a primary and pivotal role in avionics visual analysis, which aims to completely and accurately detect moving objects from complex backgrounds. However, due to the relatively small sizes of targets in aerial video, many deep networks that achieve success in normal size object detection are usually accompanied by a high rate of false alarms and missed detections. To address this problem, we propose a novel visual detail augmented mapping approach for small aerial target detection. Concretely, we first present a multi-cue foreground segmentation algorithm including motion and grayscale information to extract potential regions. Then, based on the visual detail augmented mapping approach, the regions that might contain moving targets are magnified to multi-resolution to obtain detailed target information and rearranged into new foreground space for visual enhancement. Thus, original small targets are mapped to a more efficient foreground augmented map which is favorable for accurate detection. Finally, driven by the success of deep detection network, small moving targets can be well detected from aerial video. Experiments extensively demonstrate that the proposed method achieves success in small aerial target detection without changing the structure of the deep network. In addition, compared with the-state-of-art object detection algorithms, it performs favorably with high efficiency and robustness.

Visual analysis, or “eyeballing”, of single subject (N=l) data is the commonest technique for analysing time series data. The present study examined firstly, psychologists' abilities to determine significant change between baseline (A) and therapeutic (B) phases, and secondly, the decision making process in relation to the visual components of such graphs. Thirdly, it looked at the effect that a training programme had on psychologists' abilities to identify significant A−B change. The results revealed that the participants were poor at identifying significant effects from non-significant changes. In particular, the study found a high rate of false alarms (Type 1 errors), and a low rate of misses (Type 2 errors), i.e. high sensitivity but poor specificity. The only visual components to significantly alter decisions were the degree of serial dependency and the mean shift component. The teaching influenced the participants' judgements. In general, participants became more conservative, but there was limited evidence of a significant improvement in their judgements following the teaching.

Original Algorithm

Spaceborne spotlight SAR mode has drawn attention due to its high-resolution capability, however, the studies about moving target detection with this mode are less. The paper proposes an image sequence-based method entitled modified logarithm background subtraction to detect ground moving targets with Gaofen-3 Single Look Complex (SLC) spotlight SAR images. The original logarithm background subtraction method is designed by our team for airborne SAR. It uses the subaperture image sequence to generate a background image, then detects moving targets by using image sequence to subtract background. When we apply the original algorithm to the spaceborne spotlight SAR data, a high false alarm problem occurs. To tackle the high false alarm problem due to the target’s low signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) in spaceborne cases, several improvements are made. First, to preserve most of the moving target signatures, a low threshold CFAR (constant false alarm rate) detector is used to get the coarse detection. Second, because the moving target signatures have higher density than false detections in the coarse detection, a modified DBSCAN (density-based spatial-clustering-of-applications-with-noise) clustering method is then adopted to reduce false alarms. Third, the Kalman tracker is used to exclude the residual false detections, due to the real moving target signature having dynamic behavior. The proposed method is validated by real data, the shown results also prove the feasibility of the proposed method for both Gaofen-3 and other spaceborne systems.

Introduction:Saliency detection is a fundamental task of computer vision. Its ultimate aim is to localize the objects of interest that grab human visual attention with respect to the rest of the image. A great variety of saliency models based on different approaches was developed since 1990s. In recent years, the saliency detection has become one of actively studied topic in the theory of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Many original decisions using CNNs were proposed for salient object detection and, even, event detection.Purpose:A detailed survey of saliency detection methods in deep learning era allows to understand the current possibilities of CNN approach for visual analysis conducted by the human eyes’ tracking and digital image processing.Results:A survey reflects the recent advances in saliency detection using CNNs. Different models available in literature, such as static and dynamic 2D CNNs for salient object detection and 3D CNNs for salient event detection are discussed in the chronological order. It is worth noting that automatic salient event detection in durable videos became possible using the recently appeared 3D CNN combining with 2D CNN for salient audio detection. Also in this article, we have presented a short description of public image and video datasets with annotated salient objects or events, as well as the often used metrics for the results’ evaluation.Practical relevance:This survey is considered as a contribution in the study of rapidly developed deep learning methods with respect to the saliency detection in the images and videos.

Complex Scenes

For target detection in complex scenes of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, the false alarms in the land areas are hard to eliminate, especially for the ones near the coastline. Focusing on the problem, an algorithm based on the fusion of multiscale superpixel segmentations is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the SAR images are partitioned by using different scales of superpixel segmentation. For the superpixels in each scale, the land-sea segmentation is achieved by judging their statistical properties. Then, the land-sea segmentation results obtained in each scale are combined with the result of the constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detector to eliminate the false alarms located on the land areas of the SAR image. In the end, to enhance the robustness of the proposed algorithm, the detection results obtained in different scales are fused together to realize the final target detection. Experimental results on real SAR images have verified the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Modern Warfare

The ocean is a very important arena in modern warfare where all marine powers deploy their military forces. Due to the complex environment of the ocean, underwater equipment has become a very threatening means of surprise attack in modern warfare. Therefore, the timely and effective detection of underwater moving targets is the key to obtaining warfare advantages and has important strategic significance for national security. In this paper, magnetic flux induction technology was studied with regard to the difficulty of detecting underwater concealed moving targets. Firstly, the characteristics of a magnetic target were analyzed and an equivalent magnetic dipole model was established. Secondly, the structure of the rectangular induction coil was designed according to the model, and the relationship between the target’s magnetism and the detection signal was deduced. The variation curves of the magnetic flux and the electromotive force induced in the coil were calculated by using the numerical simulation method, and the effects of the different motion parameters of the magnetic dipole and the size parameters of the coil on the induced electromotive force were analyzed. Finally, combined with the wavelet threshold filter, a series of field tests were carried out using ships of different materials in shallow water in order to verify the moving target detection method based on magnetic flux induction technology. The results showed that this method has an obvious response to moving targets and can effectively capture target signals, which verifies the feasibility of the magnetic flux induction detection technology.

In radar signal processing, detecting the moving targets in a cluttered background remains a challenging task due to the moving out and entry of targets, which is highly unpredictable. In addition, detection of targets and estimation of the parameters have become a major constraint due to the lack of required information. However, the appropriate location of the targets cannot be detected using the existing techniques. To overcome such issues, this paper presents a developed Deep Convolutional Neural Network-enabled Neuro-Fuzzy System (Deep CNN-enabled Neuro-Fuzzy system) for detecting the moving targets using the radar signals. Initially, the received signal is presented to the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), matched filter, radar signatures-enabled Deep Recurrent Neural Network (Deep RNN), and introduced deep CNN to locate the targets. The target location output results are integrated using the newly introduced neuro-fuzzy system to detect the moving targets effectively. The proposed deep CNN-based neuro-fuzzy system obtained effective moving target detection results by varying the number of targets, iterations, and the pulse repetition level for the metrics, like detection time, missed target rate, and MSE with the minimal values of 1.221s, 0.022, and 1,952.15.

Intrusion detection system (IDS) plays a vital and crucial role in a computer security. However, they suffer from a number of problems such as low detection of DoS (denial-of-service)/DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks with a high rate of false alarms. In this chapter, a new technique for detecting DoS attacks is proposed; it detects DOS attacks using a set of classifiers and visualizes them in real time. This technique is based on the collection of network parameter values (data packets), which are automatically represented by simple geometric graphs in order to highlight relevant elements. Two implementations for this technique are performed. The first is based on the Euclidian distance while the second is based on KNN algorithm. The effectiveness of the proposed technique has been proven through a simulation of network traffic drawn from the 10% KDD and a comparison with other classification techniques for intrusion detection.
