Abstract

In the target detection based on a laser imaging system, target classification and identification means determining the types and identifying the features of targets by processing their laser images including range, gray, waveform and level images. The target classification and identification requires processing the above images individually to achieve a comprehensive result. As to the image processing, regular methods can be used to handle each type of the images before the use. There are two kinds of target classifications including unsupervised and supervised ones.
