Abstract :
A new automatic target recognition (ATR) scheme based on one-dimensional high range resolution profiles is presented, which features joint range alignment and classification. This method can also be used to form mean- or eigen-templates to further improve the ATR performance. Experimental results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the new algorithm.
