TARGET DETECTION EXPERIMENTS WITH A NON-PARAMETRIC DETECTOR ON A NEW HYPERSPECTRAL DATA SET

Target detection experiments with a novel non-parametric detector are carried out exploiting the availability of a new hyperspectral data set featuring a suburban scene with several different targets. Benefiting from its non-parametric nature and from its data adaptivity deriving from the variable- bandwidth approach, the detector is shown to provide promising results for the detection of the targets of interest both in global and local configurations.
