Abstract
The detection of objects composed of several regions by means of maximum likelihood based filters is analyzed. The target is assumed to have different unknown mean values in each of its regions. First, the cases where the number of actual distinct regions is known is considered. Also, we analyze the cases when an estimation of the actual configuration of the mean values in the target region is needed. A simplified filter that reduces the computational complexity is also proposed. The statistical performance is theoretically analyzed and tested in computer experiments dealing with real images.
