Abstract

A method for the detection of plastic anti-personnel mines called “ leg breakers ” is presented from images of the ground acquired remotely by a drone at heights between 1 and 5 m. The proposal achieved an accuracy of 92.13 % and a sensitivity of 82.4 % when evaluating the performance on 260 test images, a number higher than that used in previous works, and with mines buried in real terrain with the presence of vegetation. The above on images acquired on different dates with different environmental conditions and soil moisture. In addition, it was found that the method was adapted to three different thermographic cameras, being necessary only to adjust the gamma parameter associated with the thermal contrast enhancement technique used. It was corroborated that mines are easier to detect to the extent that they are buried more superficially, and when the flight height of the drone is between 1 and 2 m. Finally, it is highlighted that the proposal has the potential to be executed in processing systems onboard the drone, thanks to its algorithmic simplicity.

通过分析无人机在不同高度拍摄的热成像图像,探测 "断腿 "型杀伤人员地雷
在对 260 幅测试图像进行性能评估时,该建议的准确率达到 92.13%,灵敏度达到 82.4%,这一数字高于以往工作中使用的数字。以上是在不同日期、不同环境条件和土壤湿度下获取的图像。此外,还发现该方法适用于三种不同的热像仪,只需调整与所使用的热对比度增强技术相关的伽马参数即可。研究证实,如果地雷埋得较浅,无人机的飞行高度在 1 至 2 米之间,则更容易探测到地雷。

期刊介绍: The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared'' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region. Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine. Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
