How Can Economists Help Clear Landmines and Unexploded Ordnance? [PDF]

Millions of mines lie in or on the ground in 62 countries resulting in thousands of deaths and injuries each year. Most mines are cleared using probes and hand held mine detectors; although sniffer dogs and a variety of machines are becoming more common.

Analysis of Radiation Methods for Explosive Materials Detection

East European Journal of Physics
The paper examines the physical aspects of some landmine detection methods based on fast neutron backscattering. An analysis of the reaction products of the interaction of fast, slow, and thermal neutrons with H, C, N, O nuclei, which are part of ...

GPR Signal Processing with Geography Adaptive Scanning using Vector Radar for Antipersonal Landmine Detection

International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2008
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a promising sensor for landmine detection, however there are two major problems to overcome. One is the rough ground surface. The other problem is the distance between the antennas of GPR. It remains irremovable clutters

A False-Positive-Centric Framework for Object Detection Disambiguation

Remote Sensing
Existing frameworks for classifying the fidelity for object detection tasks do not consider false positive likelihood and object uniqueness. Inspired by the Detection, Recognition, Identification (DRI) framework proposed by Johnson 1958, we propose a new

Detection of Buried Landmines using a Convolutional Autoencoder trained on Simulated prompt Gamma Spectra

Bulletin of "Carol I" National Defense University
The detection of buried landmines remains a persistent challenge in security and humanitarian demining. In this work, we present an indirect detection methodology based on the analysis of prompt gamma-ray emissions induced by 14 MeV neutron irradiation.
