Overview

SVMs have emerged as very successful pattern recognition methods in recent years 16]. SVMs have yielded superior performance in various applications such as; text categorization 15], and face detection 12], content-based image retrieval 6], and learning image similarity 4]. The motivation here is detection of suspicious bags in a security situation. The usual method for bomb personnel is to blow up a suspicious bag, and any explosives contained therein. However, if the bag contains chemical, biological or radiological canisters, this may lead to disastrous results. Furthermore, the "bl- up" method also destroys important clues such as fingerprints, type of explosive, detonators and other signatures of importance for forensic analysis. Extraction of the bag contents using telerobotics avoids these problems 8]. In a telerobotic system, it is advantageous to automate bag classification which is coupled to robotic tactics such as shaking out of the bags contents.
