Abstract

Clutter metrics for predicting human target acquisition performance were discussed. The image metrics were designed to imitate some of the most important human perceptual cues such as global image complexity (clutter), local target to background distinctness (contrast) and texture. Three different clutter metrics were presented and applied to infrared and visible image databases. Results showed that the ICOM metric gave a good estimation of the number of image areas that can be classified as potential targets.
