Electromagnetic target detection and classification is an important
problem relevant not only to military applications but also to civilian
use. In the problem of a breast tumor detection and identification [1],
for instance, the main concern is accuracy. In the case of the
recognition of a military target such as an aircraft or a ship, on the
other hand, speed of classification is as important as the accuracy of
the decision as such a decision should be made within a fraction of a
second. For the K-pulse target identification technique used in this
research, the K-pulse design phase is rather complicated and time
consuming but the interactive decision process, that is the only phase
of identification to be completed in real-time, is very simple and fast.
