| Abstract | The detection of threatening objects using x-ray luggage scan images has become an important means of aviation security nowadays. Although tremendous amount of efforts have been focused on automatic detection of objects for medical systems, security applications were not at the forefront of research until the events of September 11th and most airport screening is still based on the manual detection of potential threat objects by human experts. A variety of so-called “image enhancements” functions to help decision making by humans is now a recognized area of critical need. In this technical report we present the state of the art about image enhancement methods for single and dual energy x-ray images, we propose a new taxonomy, grouping the different approaches and stressing their limitations as a starting point to future contributions in this field. |
