The materials of this article are devoted to the development of one of the main aspects of artificial intelligence systems - pattern recognition. The relevance of the materials is due to the rapid development of radar systems for various purposes and the transition in some directions from radar to radio vision. Currently, much attention is paid to the development of radar systems with synthesizing the antenna aperture, for remote sensing of the earth and recognition of stationary ground objects, however, according to the author, radar recognition of mobile aerial objects is an important issue. The purpose of this article is to propose a solution to the problem of recognizing moving aerial objects by their radar portraits, based on the theory of statistical hypothesis testing. At the moment there are many methods of pattern recognition, this article discusses an algorithm that implements the function of matching the current image and the reference from a pre-formed catalog. As the current image, an azimuth-range radar portrait is considered, which is formed by super-resolution in azimuth, by synthesizing the aperture of the antenna and in range, using ultra-wideband signal. The author suggests, with a statistical approach to solving the problem of radar recognition, not to be tied to finding the probability of an object belonging to each of the pre-formed classes using a selected feature with a known probability distribution density of values, but to consider this process from the position of the signal at the output of the optimal recognition system to a specific image. A new approach to the description of probabilistic events when making a recognition decision is proposed. As a statistical classifier, it is proposed to use the Neumann-Pearson theory of statistical solutions.
