Popis: A method is proposed for automatic detection of the concealed pistols detected by passive millimeter in security applications. In this paper, we extend four half-surrounded Haar-like features and use integral image to rapidly calculate the rectangle features. Then we obtain a multi-layer classifier cascaded by several strong classifiers using AdaBoost algorithm to detect the contraband. Various passive millimeter images from both published literatures and our own measurements are used for training and testing. The experimental results show that the metallic pistols in different sizes, shapes, and angles can be accurately detected, so this method is useful for automatic detection of pistols.
