Traditional detectors for hyperspectral imagery (HSI) target detection (TD) output the result after processing the HSI only once. However, using the prior target information only once is not sufficient, as it causes the inaccuracy of target extraction or the unclean separation of the background. In this paper, the target pixels are located by a hierarchical background separation method, which explores the relationship between the target and the background for making better use of the prior target information more than one time. In each layer, there is an angle distance (AD) between each pixel spectrum in HSI and the given prior target spectrum. The AD between the prior target spectrum and candidate target ones is smaller than that of the background pixels. The AD metric is utilized to adjust the values of pixels in each layer to gradually increase the separability of the background and the target. For making better discrimination, the AD is calculated through the whitened data rather than the original data. Besides, an elegant and ingenious smoothing processing operation is employed to mitigate the influence of spectral variability, which is beneficial for the detection accuracy. The experimental results of three real hyperspectral images show that the proposed method outperforms other classical and recently proposed HSI target detection algorithms.

Target image detection based on a rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) paradigm is a typical brain-computer interface system with various applications, such as image retrieval. In an RSVP paradigm, a P300 component is detected to determine target images. This strategy requires high-precision single-trial P300 detection methods. However, the performance of single-trial detection methods is relatively lower than that of multitrial P300 detection methods. Image retrieval based on multitrial P300 is a new research direction. In this paper, we propose a triple-RSVP paradigm with three images being presented simultaneously and a target image appearing three times. Thus, multitrial P300 classification methods can be used to improve detection accuracy. In this study, these mechanisms were extended and validated, and the characteristics of the multi-RSVP framework were further explored. Two different P300 detection algorithms were also utilized in multi-RSVP to demonstrate that the scheme is universally applicable. Results revealed that the detection accuracy of the multi-RSVP paradigm was higher than that of the standard RSVP paradigm. The results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, and this method can provide a whole new idea in the field of EEG-based target detection.

The research of anomaly target detection algorithm in hyperspectral imagery is a hot issue, which has important research value. In order to overcome low efficiency of current anomaly target detection in hyperspectral image, an anomaly detection algorithm for hyperspectral images based on wavelet transform and sparse representation was proposed. Firstly, two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform is used to denoise the hyperspectral image, and the new hyperspectral image data are obtained. Then, the results of anomaly target detection are obtained by using sparse representation theory. The real AVIRIS hyperspectral imagery data sets are used in the experiments. The results show that the detection accuracy and false alarm rate of the propoesd algorithm are better than RX and KRX algorithm.

Target detection in remote sensing imagery, mapping of sparsely distributed materials, has vital applications in defense security and surveillance, mineral exploration, agriculture, environmental monitoring, etc. The detection probability and the quality of retrievals are functions of various parameters of the sensor, platform, target–background dynamics, targets’ spectral contrast, and atmospheric influence. Generally, target detection in remote sensing imagery has been approached using various statistical detection algorithms with an assumption of linearity in the image formation process. Knowledge on the image acquisition geometry, and spectral features and their stability across different imaging platforms is vital for designing a spectral target detection system. We carried out an integrated target detection experiment for the detection of various artificial target materials. As part of this work, we acquired a benchmark multi-platform hyperspectral and multispectral remote sensing dataset named as ‘Gudalur Spectral Target Detection (GST-D)’ dataset. Positioning artificial targets on different surface backgrounds, we acquired remote sensing data by terrestrial, airborne, and space-borne sensors on 20th March 2018. Various statistical and subspace detection algorithms were applied on the benchmark dataset for the detection of targets, considering the different sources of reference target spectra, background, and the spectral continuity across the platforms. We validated the detection results using the receiver operation curve (ROC) for different cases of detection algorithms and imaging platforms. Results indicate, for some combinations of algorithms and imaging platforms, consistent detection of specific material targets with a detection rate of about 80% at a false alarm rate between 10−2 to 10−3. Target detection in satellite imagery using reference target spectra from airborne hyperspectral imagery match closely with the satellite imagery derived reference spectra. The ground-based in-situ reference spectra offer a quantifiable detection in airborne or satellite imagery. However, ground-based hyperspectral imagery has also provided an equivalent target detection in the airborne and satellite imagery paving the way for rapid acquisition of reference target spectra. The benchmark dataset generated in this work is a valuable resourcefor addressing intriguing questions in target detection using hyperspectral imagery from a realistic landscape perspective.

Marine target detection technology plays an important role in sea surface monitoring, sea area management, ship collision avoidance, and other fields. Traditional marine target detection algorithms cannot meet the requirements of accuracy and speed. This article uses the advantages of deep learning in big data feature learning to propose the YOLOv4 marine target detection method fused with a convolutional attention module. Marine target detection datasets were collected and produced and marine targets were divided into ten categories, including speedboat, warship, passenger ship, cargo ship, sailboat, tugboat, and kayak. Aiming at the problem of insufficient detection accuracy of YOLOv4’s self-built marine target dataset, a convolutional attention module is added to the YOLOv4 network to increase the weight of useful features while suppressing the weight of invalid features to improve detection accuracy. The experimental results show that the improved YOLOv4 has higher detection accuracy than the original YOLOv4, and has better detection results for small targets, multiple targets, and overlapping targets. The detection speed meets the real-time requirements, verifying the effectiveness of the improved algorithm.

Target detection in hyperspectral imagery (HSI) aims at extracting target components of interest from hundreds of narrow contiguous spectral bands, where the prior target information plays a vital role. However, the limitation of the previous methods is that only single-layer detection is carried out, which is not sufficient to discriminate the target parts from complex background spectra accurately. In this paper, we introduce a hierarchical structure to the traditional algorithm matched filter (MF). Because of the advantages of MF in target separation performance, that is, the background components are suppressed while preserving the targets, the detection result of MF is used to further suppress the background components in a cyclic iterative manner. In each iteration, the average output of the previous iteration is used as a suppression criterion to distinguish these pixels judged as backgrounds in the current iteration. To better stand out the target spectra from the background clutter, HSI spectral input and the given target spectrum are whitened and then used to construct the MF in the current iteration. Finally, we provide the corresponding proofs for the convergence of the output and suppression criterion. Experimental results on three classical hyperspectral datasets confirm that the proposed method performs better than some traditional and recently proposed methods.

Aiming at the problem of low pedestrian target detection accuracy, we propose a detection algorithm based on optimized Mask R-CNN which uses the latest research results of deep learning to improve the accuracy and speed of detection results. Due to the influence of illumination, posture, background, and other factors on the human target in the natural scene image, the complexity of target information is high. SKNet is used to replace the part of the convolution module in the depth residual network model in order to extract features better so that the model can adaptively select the best convolution kernel during training. In addition, according to the statistical law, the length-width ratio of the anchor box is modified to make it more accord with the natural characteristics of the pedestrian target. Finally, a pedestrian target dataset is established by selecting suitable pedestrian images in the COCO dataset and expanded by adding noise and median filtering. The optimized algorithm is compared with the original algorithm and several other mainstream target detection algorithms on the dataset; the experimental results show that the detection accuracy and detection speed of the optimized algorithm are improved, and its detection accuracy is better than other mainstream target detection algorithms.
