Abstract

A novel data processing technique is provided for employing a physical model as an element in a process for automatic target detection of a target viewed by an imaging lidar system. The present invention obtains estimates for the mean and variance of the probability distributions for random video levels which are output from a camera. These estimates are obtained under various assumptions about the state of the target.
