针对复杂背景、低对比度条件下的红外目标检测，提出了一种基于灰度对比度特征 相似性贝叶斯(GCF SB)模型的红外显著性目标检测算法.建立了一种灰度对比度特征(GCF)模型，该模型利用两个通道分别提取红外图像的灰度特征和对比度特征，然后通过特征融合获得初级显著图；建立了一种基于相似性的贝叶斯(SB)模型，该模型根据初级特征图分别计算目标和背景的先验概率和似然函数，然后利用贝叶斯公式获得最终显著图，进而实现红外图像的显著性目标检测.实验结果表明，所提出算法能够有效抑制复杂背景、低对比度红外图像的噪声，增强对比度，具有较高的检测精度和鲁棒性.

IR Saliency Detection Based on a GCF-SB Visual Attention Framework

Infrared (IR) saliency detection with high detection accuracy is a challenging task due to the complex background and low contrast of IR images. In this paper, an IR saliency detection method based on a new visual attention framework is proposed, which comprises two phases. In the first phase, a Gray & Contrast Features (GCF) model is established, in which the IR image is processed in two feature channels, a gray feature channel and a contrast feature channel. And then a primary feature map can be obtained by fusing the gray and contrast features from these two channels, which is the basis of the second phase. In the second phase, a Similarity based Bayes (SB) model is established, in which two prior probabilities and two likelihood functions are calculated according to the previously obtained primary feature map. Finally, the saliency map is calculated with the obtained prior probabilities and likelihood functions by Bayes formula. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method can effectively reduce noise and enhance contrast of IR images with complex background and low contrast, and obtain a higher detection accuracy and robustness than seven comparison algorithm methods.
