Description
Summary:The correlation filtering algorithm of infrared spectral data for dim and small target tracking is studied to improve the tracking accuracy of small and weak targets and to track small and weak targets in real time. After the image noise reduction processing by the mean shift filtering algorithm, the infrared small and weak target image data model is constructed by using the denoised infrared small and weak target image. And the brightness value and position of unknown small and weak targets are obtained. The tracking and measurement model of small and weak targets is built. The joint probabilistic data association algorithm is used to calculate the probability that each measurement is associated with its possible source targets, and the particle filter is used to update the tracking status of small and weak targets to achieve real-time tracking of small and weak targets. The experimental results show that the algorithm can enhance the edge contour information of small and weak images, so as to accurately track small and weak targets moving in any track, and has good real-time tracking and accuracy. There is a small deviation between the tracking track of weak and small targets tracked by the algorithm and the actual track, and the root mean square difference of tracking weak and small targets is within 2 pixels. In addition, the detection probability of detecting weak and small targets is less affected by SNR environmental factors.
