Title
Automatic Target Recognition of Aircraft Models based on ISAR Images
Abstract
In this paper, we present a system for aircraft automatic target recognition (ATR) using Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) and based on Knowledge discovery from data process adapted to radar domain We propose a method for target shape extraction from ISAR images based on the combination of two methods, SUSAN modified and active deformable contours via level set. In the second part of this work, We propose to fuse two commonly used shape descriptors algorithms based on moments Invariant and Fourier descriptors We have investigated the impact of the information fusion on the recognition rate. The classification scheme is ensured using support vector machine (SVM) classifier. Several combination strategies are compared at score/decision/feature level. Experimental results of the proposed method are provided and discussed.
