A Parzen Window-based Approach to Detection of Infrared Dim Target Under Sea-sky Background

  • People attach great importance to high detection probability and low false alarm probability for infrared dim target detection. Consequently, a novel approach is proposed based on inverted local information entropy map and the improved region growing technique. The idea originates from the intrinsic property of natural image, the visual mechanism of flying insects and the information entropy theory. Besides qualitative analyses, other methods including the norms of local signal-to-background ratio, local signal-to-noise ratio, region non-uniformity, single-frame detection probability and single-frame false alarm probability are adopted to quantitatively evaluate the proposed approach. Both qualitative and quantitative comparisons confirm the validity and efficiency of the proposed approach.
