A technique for determining events of interest within an output pattern generated from a detected image of an array of detectors where the output pattern comprises signals associated with noise, and signals associated with the events of interest which have intensities both greater and less than intensities of signals associated with noise. Quantum resonance interferometry is utilized to amplify signals associated with the events of interest having an intensity lower than the intensity of signals associated with noise, to an intensity greater than the intensity of the signals associated with noise to generate a modified output pattern. Once the desired signals are amplified, the technique determines which signals within the modified output pattern correlate with events of interest thus permitting a determination to be made whether a certain event of interest has occurred.
