This is a ARMY RESEARCH LAB ADELPHI MD report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A238793. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: The objective force will be relying heavily on their sensors to be a combat multiplier to help improve the force's effectiveness and survivability, particularly for reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition missions. Currently, fielded passive sensor systems are generally ineffective against camouflage, concealment, and deception. Their performance is also sensitive to environmental conditions. To meet future needs, several new sensor systems are being developed and evaluated. Two of these new sensors are passive systems that collect additional, measurable characteristics of light: hyperspectral (HS) systems and spectro-polarimetric (SP) systems. To fully take advantage of the information that these systems collect requires new algorithms and techniques. This report discusses why new techniques are necessary and details the development of a computer-assisted design system for the discovery of classification algorithms via a small number of sample target and background signatures. The technique is called genetic programming (GP). GP is an adaptive learning technique that automatically generates a computer program (in this work, a mathematical equation) to solve the problem it is given. This report documents work conducted primarily between September 1999 and August 2000, while the author was on a rotation at the University of Michigan under the Federated Laboratories Consortium program. The report demonstrates that GP could be a useful technique for processing HS and SP data..

This is a AIR FORCE INST OF TECH WRIGHT-PATTERSON AFB OH SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is A486514. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: The limited resolution of video imagery taken by aircraft, over geographical areas of interest, hinders the accurate extraction of useful information. The frame resolution of the video is determined by the camera that created it. Information exists about the camera which can be used to increase frame resolution beyond the resolution capability of the camera. This is achieved by a process called super-resolution, which uses multiple low- resolution video frames to create one high-resolution image..
