Title: Dual-band, infrared buried mine detection using a statistical pattern recognition approach

Abstract

The main objective of this work was to detect surrogate land mines, which were buried in clay and sand, using dual-band, infrared images. A statistical pattern recognition approach was used to achieve this objective. This approach is discussed and results of applying it to real images are given.
