Abstract

Aiming at the problem of the low contrast between target and background in the detected UAV target intensity images, a low-speed and small UAV targets detection and tracking method based on polarization imaging detection is proposed. Based on the analysis of the polarization imaging characteristics of low-speed and small UAV targets, through polarization image analysis, single-frame detection based on spatial filtering and adaptive threshold segmentation, continuous frame target trajectory association based on spatiotemporal information, and improved KCF algorithm Target tracking and other processing processes have realized the effective detection and tracking of low-speed and small UAV targets.
