Abstract

In this paper, we propose the target detection method using image displacement, and classification method using SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features) feature points and BAS(Beam Angle Statistics) in infrared images. The SURF method that is a typical correspondence matching method in the area of image processing has been widely used, because it is significantly faster than the SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transform) method, and produces a similar performance. In addition, in most SURF based object recognition method, it consists of feature point extraction and matching process. In proposed method, it detects the target area using the displacement, and target classification is performed by using the geometry of SURF feature points. The proposed method was applied to the unmanned target detection/recognition system. The experimental results in virtual images and real images, we have approximately 73~85% of the classification performance.

본 논문에서는 적외선 영상에서 영상 변위를 이용하여 기동 표적 영역을 탐지하고, SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features) 특징점에 대한 BAS(Beam Angle Statistics)를 이용하여 분류하는 시스템에 대하여 설명한다. 영상 기반 기술 분야에서 대표적인 대응점 정합 알고리즘인 SURF 기법은 SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transform) 기법에 비해 정합 속도가 매우 빠르고 비슷한 정합 성능을 보이기 때문에 널리 사용되고 있다. SURF를 이용한 대부분의 객체 인식의 경우 특징점 추출과 정합의 과정을 수행하지만, 제안하는 기법은 표적의 기동 특성을 반영하여 영상의 변위 추정을 통하여 표적의 영역을 탐지하고 SURF 특징점 들의 기하구조를 판단함으로써 표적 분류를 수행한다. 제안하는 기법은 무인 표적 탐지/인지 시스템의 초기모델 구축을 위하여 연구가 진행되었으며, 모의 표적을 이용한 가상 영상과 적외선 실 영상을 이용하여 실험한 결과 약 73~85%의 분류 성능을 확인하였다.
