Abstract

A specific case where the image has the unknown area, regular component, and also the random component intensity has been considered. A maximum likelihood algorithm for the detection of stochastic image with unknown parameters was synthesized. Characteristics of the algorithm were obtained, and the impact of image characteristics and applicative background on the detection efficiency was analyzed.
