Ship detection optimization method in SAR imagery based on multi-feature weighting
Aiming at the problem that the accuracy of traditional ship detection algorithms is not satisfying in complex scene with many false alarm targets,a ship detection optimization method in SAR imagery based on multi-feature weighting was proposed.Firstly,the marker-based watershed algorithm was employe...

description | Aiming at the problem that the accuracy of traditional ship detection algorithms is not satisfying in complex scene with many false alarm targets,a ship detection optimization method in SAR imagery based on multi-feature weighting was proposed.Firstly,the marker-based watershed algorithm was employed to remove land from SAR amplitude image.Then,the CFAR algorithm based on log-normal distribution was used to obtain candidate targets from no land image.Furthermore,the length to width ratio,the ship area and the contrast ratio of the candidate targets were extracted.Finally,a variance coefficient method was proposed to distribute the weight of the three features,and the confidence levels were calculated by combining the normalized feature vectors of the candidate targets with the feature weight.By determining the best confidence level,false alarm targets among the candidate targets were removed to optimize ship detection results.In order to verify the proposed method,experiments were carried on with the GF-3 SAR images of different complex scenes.The experimental results show that the proposed method is feasible and effective. |
