In moving object tracking based on the visual sensory feedback, a prerequisite is to determine which feature or which object is to be tracked and then the feature or the object identification precedes the tracking. In this paper, we focus on the object identification not image feature identification. The target identification is realized by finding out corresponding line segments to the hypothesized model segments of the target. The key idea is the combination of the Mahalanobis distance with the geometrica relationship between model segments and extracted line segments. We demonstrate the robustness and feasibility of the proposed target identification algorithm by a moving vehicle identification and tracking in the video traffic surveillance system over images of a road scene.

Monostatic/Bistatic inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) images are two-dimensional radar cross section (RCS) distributions of a target. When there are many targets in a single radar beam, ISAR images are generated with targets overlapped, so it is difficult to perform the targets identification using the trained database. In addition, it is inefficient to perform target identification using only single monostatic and bistatic ISAR images separately because each method has its own advantages and weaknesses. Therefore, this paper analyzes multiple targets identification performances using monostatic/bistatic ISAR images and proposes a method of identification through fusion of two ISAR images. To identify multiple targets, we use image combination technique using trained single target images. Simulation results show effectiveness of proposed method.

Inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR) image generated from bistatic radar(Bi-ISAR) represents two-dimensional scattering distribution of a target, and the Bi-ISAR can be used for bistatic target identification. However, Bi-ISAR has large variability in scattering mechanisms depending on bistatic configurations and do not represent exact range-Doppler information of a target due to inherent distortion. Thus, an efficient training DB construction is the most important factor in target identification using Bi-ISARs. Recently, a database construction method based on realistic flight scenarios of a target, which provides a reliable identification performance for the monostatic target identification, was applied to target identification using high resolution range profiles(HRRPs) generated from bistatic radar(Bi-HRRPs), to construct efficient training DB under bistatic configurations. Consequently, high identification performance was achieved using only small amount of training Bi-HRRPs, when the target is a considerable distance away from the bistatic radar. Thus, flight scenarios based training DB construction is applied to target identification using Bi-ISARs. Then, the capability and efficiency of the method is analyzed.

Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar(ISAR) image is 2-dimensional radar cross section distributions of a target. For target approaching along radar's line of sight(LOS), the bistatic ISAR can compensate for the weakness of the monostatic ISAR which can not obtain the vertical resolution of the image. However, bistatic ISAR have longer processing times and variability in scattering mechanisms than monostatic ISAR, so target identification using only bistatic ISAR images can be inefficient. Therefore, this paper analyzes target identification performance using monostatic and bistatic ISAR images of targets approaching along radar's LOS and proposes a method of target identification through fusion of two radars. Simulation results demonstrate that identification performance through fusion is more efficient than identification performance using only monostatic, bistatic ISAR images.

Many studies have been conducted on the accurate detection and identification of targets from ground clutter, in order to improve the accuracy rate of land guided weapons. Due to the variety and complicated characteristics of the ground clutter signal compared to the target, an active target identification technique is needed. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm to identify targets and divide them into different types by extracting the unique characteristics of the target through fractal dimension calculation with the characteristics of self-similarity. In the simulation using the algorithm, the probabilities of identifying the tank and truck were 100 % and 98.89 %, respectively, and the type of the target could be identified with a probability of 98 % or more.

Peptide identification in tandem mass spectrometry is usually done by searching the spectra against target databases consisting of reference protein sequences. To control false discovery rates for high-confidence peptide identification, spectra are also searched against decoy databases constructed by permuting reference protein sequences. In this case, a peptide of the same sequence could be included in both the target and the decoy databases or multiple entries of a same peptide could exist in the decoy database. These phenomena make the protein identification problem complicated. Thus, it is important to minimize the number of such redundant peptides for accurate protein identification. In this regard, we examined two popular methods for decoy database generation: 'pseudo-shuffling' and 'pseudo-reversing'. We experimented with target databases of varying sizes and investigated the effect of the maximum number of missed cleavage sites allowed in a peptide (MC), which is one of the parameters for target and decoy database generation. In our experiments, the level of redundancy in decoy databases was proportional to the target database size and the value of MC, due to the increase in the number of short peptides (7 to 10 AA). Moreover, 'pseudo-reversing' always generated decoy databases with lower levels of redundancy compared to 'pseudo-shuffling'.

Bistatric radar can perform detection and identification for stealth targets that are rarely detected by the conventional monostatic radar. However, high resolution range profile(HRRP) generated from the received signal in the bistatic radar cannot show exact range information of the target because the bistatic geometry lead to the distortions of the bistatic HRRP. In addition, electromagnetic scattering mechanisms of the target are varied depending on the bistatic geometry. Thus, efficient database construction is a crucial factor to achieve successful classification capability in bistatic target identification. In this paper, a database construction method based on realistic flight scenarios of a target, which provides a reliable identification performance for the monostatic radar, is applied to bistatic target identification. Then, the capability and efficiency of the method is analyzed. Simulation results show that reliable identification performance can be achieved using the database construction based on the flight scenarios when the target is a considerable distance away from the bistatic radar.

With advancements in satellite technology, interest in target detection and identification is increasing quantitatively and qualitatively. Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) images, which can be acquired regardless of weather conditions, have been applied to various areas combined with machine learning based detection algorithms. However, conventional studies primarily focused on the detection of stationary targets. In this study, we proposed a method to identify moving targets using an algorithm that integrates sub-aperture SAR images and cosine similarity calculations. Utilizing a transformer-based deep learning target detection model, we extracted the bounding box of each target, designated the area as a region of interest (ROI), estimated the similarity between sub-aperture SAR images, and determined movement based on a predefined similarity threshold. Through the proposed algorithm, the quantitative evaluation of target identification capability enhanced its accuracy compared to when training with the targets with two different classes. It signified the effectiveness of our approach in maintaining accuracy while reliably discerning whether a target is in motion.

HRR(High Resolution Range) profiles show one-dimensional radar images including electromagnetic scattering phenomena of a target. Thus, they are not only robust to noise, but also easily obtainable in a real-time. However, in order to construct a training database for the success of radar target identification, a huge amount of HRR profiles are needed because HRR profiles are highly dependent on the relative angle between the radar and the target. In order to alleviate this difficulty, a database construction method based on the scenarios of target's movement is proposed. The proposed method is able to provide a reliable target identification performance even with a small amount of training database.
