Abstract

Conditions have been identified from interceptor seeker data analysis that may degrade the performance of background estimation and object detection algorithms. A study of various algorithms was conducted to test the robustness of these algorithms in a variety of scenarios on real flight test interceptor seeker data. The goal of the study was to find one algorithm that would perform well with limited computer resources regardless of the scenario. This paper will describe each algorithm tested, discuss the benefits and issues of each technique, and present the results and conclusions.
