Abstract:

In order to improve the robustness of the pipeline target detection algorithm against strong noises and occlusion, this paper presents an adaptive pipeline filtering algorithm (APFA). In APFA, the velocity and the center of the target are firstly predicted based on the smooth motion trajectory after background suppression. Then, time-domain energy enhancement of targets is adopted to improve the obscure target detection, and adaptively updating the center and radius of the pipeline filter are carried out for targets’ motion variation. Experiments on five different typical scenes show that APFA can improve the robustness of the pipeline filter against strong noises and even when targets are temporarily obscured partially or completely. Simultaneously, APFA can significantly improve the energy and signal-to-noise ratio of targets, and as a result, the target detection rate is significantly promoted on all experiments.
