Air Target Classification Based on Dempster-Shafer Approach

Turhan, Hasan Ihsan
Demirekler, Mübeccel
In this paper, classification of air vehicles according to their types is studied. Dempster-Shafer theory is utilized for this purpose. The target tracker data and radar cross section data are used for obtaining the instantaneous probability masses by comparing them with the prior information. Final decision is made by combining the instantaneous probability masses in time. This new methodology is tested on real data and results are presented.

Micro-Doppler analysis of rotary-wing air vehicles using pulsed-Doppler radar
Aybar, Bahadir; Yılmaz, Ali Özgür (2018-07-05)
In this paper, micro-Doppler signatures of rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are investigated in order to classify these air targets, to distinguish them from birds and clutter and to specify their types using experimental data. Radar parameters required for extracting the micro-Doppler signatures of rotary-wing air targets with different blade lengths are studied. Experimental data taken from different targets using a medium Pulse Repetition Frequency (PRF) pulsed-Doppler surveillance radar is an...
Navier-Stokes calculations over swept wings
Şahin, Pınar; Özgen, Serkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2006)
In this study, the non-equilibrium Johnson and King Turbulence Model (JK model) is implemented in a three-dimensional, Navier-Stokes flow solver. The main program is a structured Euler/Navier-Stokes flow solver in which spatial discretization is accomplished by a finite volume formulation and a multigrid technique is used as a convergence accelerator. The aim is the validation of this in-house developed CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) tool with this enhanced enlarged capability in order to obtain a relia...
Investigation of non-methane volatile organic carbon emissions from interior materials used in the intercity buses
Görmez, Baran; Atımtay, Aysel; Department of Environmental Engineering (2004)
The objectives of this study are to determine the non-methane volatile organic carbon emissions from the parts used in the interiors of buses at different temperatures and to analyze the components of these emissions. The total non-methane volatile organic carbon (NMVOC) concentrations in various sections of a bus were measured in order to determine the indoor air pollution in the bus. Different samples of the materials used in the interior parts of the buses were provided by the manufacturing company and t...
Computational fluid dynamics simulation of the combustion process, emission formation and the flow field in an in-direct injection diesel engine
Barzegar, Ramin; Shafee, Sina; Khalilarya, Shahram (National Library of Serbia, 2013)
In the present paper, the combustion process and emission formation in the Lister 8.1 in-direct injection diesel engine have been investigated using a computational fluid dynamics code. The utilized model includes detailed spray atomization, mixture formation and distribution model which enable modeling the combustion process in spray/wall and spray/swirl interactions along with flow configurations. The analysis considers both part load and full load states. The global properties are presented separately re...
An information theoretic framework for weight estimation in the combination of probabilistic classifiers for speaker identification
Altincay, H; Demirekler, Mübeccel (2000-04-01)
In this paper, we describe a relation between classification systems and information transmission systems. By looking at the classification systems from this perspective, we propose a method of classifier weight estimation for the linear (LIN-OP) and logarithmic opinion pool (LOG-OP) type classifier combination schemes for which some tools from information theory are used. These weights provide contextual information about the classifiers such as class dependent classifier reliability and global classifier ...
