Improved Image Target Detection Based on Component Analysis

Image target detection and tracking is an important research field of image processing for its great potential in Military and Civil applications. This paper proposes improved image target detection based on component analysis. At first, it explains the concept about image connected region. Then, it introduces the component analysis algorithm to extract connected components, and uses support vector machine to classify the target region. It is very useful to Forward Looking Infra-Red image processing and analysis.
