Abstract
The image resolution and contraband object detection accuracy are the two key factors for security checks based on millimeter wave imaging techniques. In this paper, a homemade real-time millimeter imaging system for small package security inspection is used to obtain about 400 raw images of envelopes containing multi-contraband objects like guns and knives. After pre-processing, spatial transformer-feature fusion (ST-FF) adapted single-shot multi-box detector (SSD) networks are used to detect the contraband objects of postal packages. The experiments reveal that the spatial-transformed-feature fusion deep learning networks demonstrate better mean average precision (mAP) performance than traditional single networks in detecting contraband objects of different scales, orientations, and distortions, and prove the great potential for security checks based on millimeter wave imaging.
