Abstract:

This report defines the figures-of-merit FOMs agreed upon by Task Group II of the Technical Coordination Program TTCP Joint Advisory Group JAG 12 data processing workshops held at NAVOCEANSYSCEN, San Diego on 25-30 March 1985. These FOMs can be applied to stationary, slow- and fast-moving target detection algorithm performance assessments. Keywords HI-CAMP, TEAL RUBY, track correlation, track quality, threshold exceedances, IR imagery, pixel.
