Popis: Passive millimeter wave images (PMMWIs) can be used to detect and localize objects concealed under clothing. Unfortunately, the quality of the acquired images and the unknown position, shape, and size of the hidden objects render these tasks challenging. In this paper, we discuss a deep learning approach to this detection/localization problem. The effect of the nonstationary acquisition noise on different architectures is analyzed and discussed. A comparison with shallow architectures is also presented. The achieved detection accuracy defines a new state of the art in object detection on PMMWIs. The low computational training and testing costs of the solution allow its use in real-time applications.
