  • Abstract
    The utility of fusing shadow and intensity detections in a SAR prescreener is evaluated over the MSTAR database. We use either power ratio, GLRT or two-parameter CFAR tests to extract the two detections. For any testing strategy, the addition of shadow information improves performance
