Automated target recognition (ATR) is a problem of great importance in a fwide variety of applications: from military target recognition to recognizing flow-patterns in fluid-dynamics to anatomical shape-stuides. The basic goal is to utilize observations (images, signals) from remote sensors( such as videos, radars, MRI or PET) to identify the objects being observed. In a statistical framework, probability distributions on parameters representing the object unknowns are devied and analyzed to compute inferences (please refer to~1 for a detailed introduction).
