Abstract

We propose a ground penetrating radar system to integrate mutimodal information of space- and frequency- domain textural features in self-organization that is modulated by mutual information. We use the MuSOM (mutual-information-based self-organizing map) architecture we proposed previously, in which the mutual information among the data fed to multiple SOMs modulates the SOM dynamics. Experiments demonstrate that our system makes meaningful clusters of landmine features clearer than a conventional non-MuSOM system does.
