Shift-Invariant Fuzzy-Morphology Neural Network for Automatic Target Recognition
Summary :
This paper describes a theoretical foundation of fuzzy morphological operations and architectural extension of the shared-weight neural network (SWNN). The network performs shift-invariant filtering using fuzzy-morphological operations for feature extraction. The nodes in the feature extraction stage employ the generalized-mean operator to implement fuzzy-morphological operations. The parameters of the SWNN, weights, morphological structuring element and fuzziness, are optimized by the error back-propagation (EBP) training method. The parameter values of the trained SWNN are then implanted into the extended SWNN (ESWNN) which is a simple convolution neural network. The ESWNN architecture dramatically reduces the amount of computation by avoiding segmentation process. The neural network is applied to automatic recognition of a vehicle in visible images. The network is tested with several sequences of images that include targets ranging from no occlusion to almost full occlusion. The results demonstrate an ability to detect occluded targets, while trained with non-occluded ones. In comparison, the proposed network was superior to the Minimum-Average Correlation filter systems and produced better results than the ordinary SWNN.
