    Abstract

    Due to the small scale and weak energy of the infrared dim small target, the background must be suppressed to enhance the target in order to ensure the performance of detection and tracking of the target in the later stage. In order to improve the ability of gradient reciprocal filter to suppress the clutter texture and reduce the interference of the residual texture to the target in the difference image, an adaptive gradient reciprocal filtering algorithm(AGRF) is proposed in this paper. In the AGRF, the adaptive judgment threshold and the adaptive relevancy coefficient function of inter-pixel correlation in the local region are determined by analyzing the distribution characteristics and statistical numeral characteristic of the background region, clutter texture, and target. Then the element value of the adaptive gradient reciprocal filter is determined by combining the relevancy coefficient function and the gradient reciprocal function. Experimental results indicate that the sensitivity of the AGRF algorithm to the clutter texture is significantly lower than that of the traditional gradient reciprocal filtering algorithm under the premise of the same target enhancement performance. Compared with the other nine algorithms, the AGRF algorithm has better signal- to-noise ratio gain (SNRG) and background suppress factor (BSF).助项目(2019AC20147)
