We present automatic target recognition (ATR) model based on principles of biological vision systems. The model employs reinforcement learning (RL) through Dual Heuristic Programming (DHP). The performance of the reported ATR model is compared to that of our previously reported ATR model, based on Heuristic Dynamic Programming (HDP). The HDP and DHP, known as the Adaptive Critic Designs (ACD), are neural network based implementation of Dynamic Programming (DP). The simulation shows promising results for both HDP and DHP based ATR model in presence of resolution distortion in incoming images and confirms that the DHP model is faster and more robust for our ATR system than the HDP.
