Small Target Detecting and Tracking Based Kernel Density Estimation and Mean-Shift Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Detecting and tracking the small moving target which is below 6×6 pixels with low signal to clutter ratio is the main difficulty in practical engineering. Based on morphology, this paper presents a new approach to promote the signal to clutter rate and highlight the small target. Then a new algorithm based on kernel function density estimation and mean-shift algorithm is proposed to track the small target. Experimental results demonstrate that this approach can track and detect the real target effectively.
