Modifications to Improve Data Acquisition and Analysis for Camouflage Design

摘要

This report describes the results of modifications to a software program which clusters digitized, multispectral photographs of natural vegetative terrains into facsimiles of the original scenes in 3, 4, or 5 colors in CIELAB notation. Tasks that were addressed included optimization of the clustering to remove any bias introduced by the highly efficient histogram preprocessing scheme; evaluation of data separately parameters and a determination of the minimum number of domains necessary to represent a scene; the ability to analyze a segment of the original scence; and the ability to plot each resulting domain individually.
