The Preprocessing for Infrared Sea-Surface Target Image
The preprocessing for infrared sea-surface target image is very important to automatic target recognition and tracking. The preprocessing can reduce noise and enhance target, and it is the base of feature extraction and target recognition. The scene model of infrared sea-surface target image was established. The characteristics of infrared image are analyzed, and several methods of preprocessing nowadays were analyzed and compared. According to the different characteristic of infrared image, a preprocessing scheme is proposed. The experimental results indicate that in practical application appropriate methods should be chosen for different purpose. In order to get good preprocessing effects, these methods can be assembled into multi- process.
