As the need of automatized system has been increased recently together with the development of industrial and military technologies, the adaptive real-time target detection technologies that can be embedded on vehicles, planes, ships, robots and so on, are hgihly demanded. Accordingly, this paper proposes a novel approach to detect and segment the moving targets using the binary phase extraction joint transform correlator (BPEJTC), the advanced image subtraction filter and convex hull processing. The BPEJTC which was used as a target detection unit mainly for target tracking compensating the camera movement. The target region has been detected by processing the successful three frames using the advanced image subtraction filter, and has become more accurate by applying the developed convex hull filter. As shown by some experimental results, it is expected that the proposed approaches for compensation of the camera movement and segmentationof of target region, can be used for th emissile guiddance, aero surveillance, automatic inspectin system as well as the target detection unit of automatic target recognition system that request adaptive real-time processing.

In this paper, we propose a new a new EOST by using the optical JTC(joint transform correlator) as the feature extraction park, because the JTC can adaptively detect the relative displacements of moving targest. Firstly, we derive the BPEJCT(binary phase extraction JTC) which is a phase type JTC and can remove the intracless correlation peaks of the conventional JTC. Then, especially we hardware construction for driving the BPEJTC in real, and with the Kalman target estimation alogorithm, we carried out a target tracking experiment only to show the possibility of real-time implementation of the EOST.

In general, a Doppler radar can measure only the velocity of a moving target. To measure the distance of a moving target, it is necessary to use a frequency-modulated continuous wave or pulse radar. However, the latter are very complex in terms of both hardware as well as signal processing. Moreover, the requirement of wide bandwidth necessitates the use of millimeter-wave frequency bands of 24 GHz and 77 GHz. Recently, a new kind of Doppler radar using multitone frequency has been studied to sense the distance of moving targets in addition to their speed. In this study, we show that distance sensing of moving targets is possible by adjusting only the frequency of a 2.4 GHz Doppler radar with low cost phase lock loop. In particular, we show that distance can be sensed using only alternating current information without direct current offset information. The proposed technology satisfies the Korean local standard for low power radio equipment for moving target identification in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, and enables multiple long-range sensing and radio-frequency identification applications.

Instantaneous frequency of doppler signals is used to get the information of the relative velocity and the miss distance between a missile and a corresponding target. In this paper, we have performed time-frequency analysis and instantaneous frequency estimation with Short Time Fourier Transform(STFT), Wigner Ville Distribution(WVD) and Continuous Wavelet Transform(CWT) about the doppler signals generated by moving targets. Performance evaluation was performed using simulated doppler signals generated by a single moving target and two moving targets. From the results of the time-frequency analysis, we found that WVD method was the most efficient instantaneous frequency estimator among the three methods. But in case of two moving targets, WVD method got cross talks and CWT method got oscillation when two doppler frequencies were close to each other.

In this paper, a target tracking algorithm using the centroid of moving edges is presented. It aims to avoid the difficulty of image segmentation in case of extracting the centroid from only one frame. The proposed algorithm can more easily segment the target than the conventional one in images with complex background. Moreover, it can track the target well when the target is occluded by an object. The result of applying it to a real-time target tracker is shown to be comparatively good.

This paper presents a tracking system using images captured from a camera on a moving platform. A camera on an unmanned flying vehicle generally moves and shakes due to external factors such as wind and the ego-motion of the machine itself. This makes it difficult to track a target properly, and sometimes the target cannot be kept in view of the camera. To deal with this problem, we propose a new system for stable tracking of a target under such conditions. The tracking system includes target tracking and 3-axis camera motion compensation. At the same time, we consider the simulation of the motion of flying vehicles for efficient and safe testing. With 3-axis motion compensation, our experimental results show that robustness and stability are improved.

Generally, the conventional tracking algorithms are very limited in the practical applications because of its exponential increase in the required computation time for the number of targets being tracked. Therefore, in this paper, a new real-time moving target tracking system is proposed, which is based on the neural networks with massive parallel processing capabilities. Through the theoretical and experimental results, the target tracking system based on neural network algorithm is analyzed to be computationally independent of the number of objects being tracked and performs the optimized tracking through its massive parallel computation and learning capabilities. And this system also has massive matched filtering effects because the moving target data can be compactly stored in the interconnection weights by learning. Accordingly, a possibility of the proposed neural network target tracking system can be suggested to the fields of real-time application.

The diffusion neural network can be cfficiently applied to the Gaussian processing. For example, a difference of two Gaussians(DOG) is performed by this network with ease. In this paper, we model a neural network to perform the function /t(.del.${\Delta}^{2}$G) by using the diffusion neural network. This model is used to detect the edges of moving target in image. By this model not only moving target is separated from stationary background but also their trajectories are obtained using accumulated past information in the diffusion neural network. Furthermore this model needs a small number of connections per cell and the connection weights are fixed-valued. Therefore its hardware can be easily implemented with simple structure.
