Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of target recognition and relates to a multi-sensor target fusion recognition method based on quantum negation. Background Art

[0002] Target recognition is a crucial aspect of helicopter flight and landing. The identified target type significantly impacts helicopter flight and landing in harsh environments. Target recognition relies primarily on the results obtained by various sensors. Based on the accuracy of each sensor's recognition of the target, these results are integrated to obtain an accurate description of the target.

[0003] In recent years, the main focus of target recognition research, both domestically and internationally, has been on extracting target features and using them to distinguish different targets. To obtain a more complete description of the target and improve recognition accuracy, multi-sensor fusion recognition is often employed. Common fusion recognition methods include DS evidence theory, Bayesian criterion, neural networks, and expert systems. DS evidence theory has garnered increasing attention and application due to its ability to effectively handle unknown and uncertain issues. In DS theory, the basic probability assignment (BPA) is a function that represents uncertain information and can be interpreted as a non-additive measure, interval probability, or subjective belief. A growing number of scholars are exploring new perspectives on the uncertainty inherent in the BPA in DS evidence theory. Some have introduced quantum mechanics into DS evidence theory, using quantum superposition to address some of the difficulties DS theory faces in uncertainty modeling and information fusion. Based on this, a quantum representation of the basic probability assignment function (BPA) based on mixed quantum states has been proposed to explain the source of uncertainty in BPA. To better handle uncertain information, the negation generation of the BPA has recently attracted considerable attention. The quantized representation and negation of BPA in evidence theory play an important role in the representation of uncertain information, multi-sensor information fusion, medical diagnosis, military command, and target recognition.

[0004] The quantization representation and negation of BPA in evidence theory have many advantages in multi-source information fusion. Applying it in target recognition can better handle the fusion of multi-sensor data and achieve more accurate target recognition. Summary of the Invention
