Abstract

We compute AM-FM models for infrared video frames depicting military targets immersed in structured clutter backgrounds. We show that independent correlation based detection processes can be implemented in the pixel and modulation domains and used to construct useful online track consistency checks that indicate when the detection process has been degraded due to nonstationary evolution of the target signature. Throughout the paper, we use the well-known AMCOM closure sequences as exemplars.
