Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of the research work is to detect camouflaged objects in autonomous systems of military applications and civilian applications such as detecting insects in paddy fields, identifying duplicate products in different texture environments.

Design/methodology/approach

Camouflaged objects detection is performed by smoothing texture with nonlinear models and characterizing with statistical methods to detect the objects.

Findings

There are few challenges in existing camouflaged objects detection due to the complexities involved in the detection process. This work proposes a constructive approach with texture statistical characterization for camouflage detection. The proposed technique is found to be better than existing methods while assessing its performance using precision and recall.

Research limitations/implications

Even though there is lot of research work carried, there are few challenges for autonomous systems in camouflage detection due to the complexities involved in the detection process such as texture modeling and dynamic background problems and environment conditions for autonomous system.

Practical implications

Camouflage detection finds potential applications in security systems, surveillance, military and autonomous systems. The proposed work is implemented in different environments for camouflage detection.

Social implications

Social problems such as image acquisition environment, time of day, desert, forest and grass fields of paddy.

Originality/value

The proposed method detects camouflaged objects in autonomous systems where it is applied for images of different kinds. It is found to be effective on images recorded in battlefield and challenging environments.
