Abstract

Many correlation filters (e.g., matched spatial filters, phase-only filters, binary phase-only filters, etc.) are usually evaluated in terms of metrics such as signal-to-noise ratio, peak-to- correlation energy and Horner light efficiency. In this paper, we compare the MSF and POF using more direct performance measures, the probability of detection (P_D) and the probability of false alarm (P_FA).
