Object recognition in X-ray testing using an efficient search algorithm in multiple views. Mery, D., Riffo, V., Zuccar, I., & Pieringer, C. Insight - Non-Destructive Testing and Condition Monitoring, 59(2):85-92, 2017. Paper abstract bibtex In order to reduce the security risk of a commercial aircraft, passengers are not allowed to take certain items in their carry-on baggage. For this reason, human operators are trained to detect prohibited items using a manually controlled baggage screening process. In this paper, we propose the use of an automated method based on multiple X-ray views to recognize certain regular objects with highly defined shapes and sizes. The method consists of two steps: `monocular analysis', to obtain possible detections in each view of a sequence, and `multiple view analysis', to recognize the objects of interest using matchings in all views. The search for matching candidates is efficiently performed using a lookup table that is computed off-line. In order to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, experimental results on recognizing regular objects -clips, springs and razor blades- in pen cases are shown achieving high precision and recall ($Pr =$ 95.7% , $Re =$ 92.5%) for 120 objects. We believe that it would be possible to design an automated aid in a target detection task using the proposed algorithm.
