Abstract

With the development of infrared technology, infrared small targets detection has attracted great interest of researchers. Top-hat filter is one of widely used methods for detecting infrared small target, and the structure elements have great influence on the performance of detection. The structure elements are desired to be adjusted adaptively. To this end, an adaptive structure elements optimization method based on quantum genetic algorithm (QGA) is introduced, and the convergence of QGA reveals the effectiveness of QGA. Experimental results show that the proposed adaptive top-hat filter based on QGA can achieve more stable infrared small target detection performance compared with the traditional top-hat filter.
