"From an engineer designing Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) systems for 40 years, comes this step-by-step guide to producing state-of-the-art ATR systems. The full spectrum of ATR designs are covered, from systems that just suggest targets to the warfighter to ATRs that could serve as the "brains" of lethal autonomous robots. Unfortunately, when it comes to ATR, some practitioners claim that their off-the-shelf canned algorithms magically leap from academic research to deployment with scant domain knowledge or system engineering. Deep learning is marketed more than deep understanding, deep explainability or deep fusion of on-platform resources. Naïve practitioners twist a few algorithmic knobs, and test on data of uncertain virtue, until performance seems superb. Unfortunately, with the enemy and ever changing environment conspiring to defeat detection and recognition, naively designed ATRs can fail in unexpected and spectacular ways. Trustworthy ATRs need to fuse multiple data and metadata sources, continuously learn from and adapt to their environment, interact with humans in natural language, and deal with in-library and out-of-library targets and confusor objects. This book provides a blueprint for smarter, more autonomous, more sophisticated ATR designs"--
