Abstract

We note the use of Gabor wavelet filters to locate objects and edges (for detections of regions of interest in scenes), to locate clutter regions (to reduce false alarms) and to produce distortion invariant features (for object classification). We describe new ways to select Gabor filter parameters, new nonlinear ways to combine Gabor function outputs for improved performance and to reduce the number of filters necessary.
