A computer architecture for artificial image generation is disclosed. According to some aspects, a computing machine receives a voxel model of a target object. The target object is to be recognized using an image recognizer. The computing machine generates, based on the voxel model, a set of TSB (target shadow background-mask) images of the target object. The computing machine receives, at an auto-encoder, a set of real images of the target object. The computing machine generates, using an auto-encoder and based on the set of real images, one or more artificial images of the target object based on the set of TSB images. The computing machine provides, as output, the generated one or more artificial images of the target object.

Computer architecture for artificial image generation

A target estimator that properly conditions measurement variates in the case of a series of sensor measurements collected against a target, a system model that captures visible and hidden stochastic information including but not limited to target state, target identity, and sensor measurements and that marginalizes measurement failure and a dynamic mixed quadrature expression facilitating real-time implementation of the estimator are presented.

Robust target identification

A method for target identification includes receiving, at one or more processors, a number of measurements of a target, each measurement from the number of measurements being observed at a predetermined time (z), a number of target types (T), each one of the number of measurements, each one the number of target type and each one of one or more hidden states, each hidden state (x) being characterized at the predetermined time, being correlated to one another, providing, using the one or more processors, a first conditional probability distribution, a conditional probability of a target type given a number of measurements, defined inductively, and obtaining an estimate of the target type from the first conditional probability. Systems that implement the method are also disclosed.
