Grammatical approach to mine detection
Christopher S. Raphael, Stuart Geman · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 1997
We demonstrate a three stage procedure for mine detection. The first phase locates plausible candidates through a series of hypothesis tests. The second state finds the globally optimal convex set containing each candidate using 'course-to-fine' dynamic programming. The third stage refines the mine shape estimates using the knowledge contained in a mine-shape library.
