Target detection and analysis using polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) images are currently of great interest in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) applications. For a complex target, the scattering characteristics are determined by different independent sub-scatterers and their interaction; therefore, the scattering characteristics should be described by a statistical method due to randomness and depolarization. Furthermore, the inherent speckle in SAR data must be reduced by spatial averaging at the expense of loss of spatial resolution. The polarimetric similarity parameter (PSP) is an effective parameter to analyse target characteristics. In order to describe a complex distributed target, two new methods for calculating PSP are proposed, namely Stokes matrix-based PSP (S-PSP) and multiple PolSAR similarity parameter (MPSP). The characteristics of a target can be described and extracted on the basis of the polarimetric similarity, and then the similarity-enhanced target detection methods using S-PSP and MPSP are implemented and demonstrated with German Aerospace Centre (DLR) experimental SAR L-band multiple temporal PolSAR images of Oberpfaffenhofen test site (DE), Germany. The results confirmed that the proposed methods are effective for detection and analysis of buildings in urban areas. 相似文献

The polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) is becoming more and more popular in remote-sensing research areas. However, due to system limitations, such as bandwidth of the signal and the physical dimension of antennas, the resolution of PolSAR images cannot be compared with those of optical remote-sensing images. Super-resolution processing of PolSAR images is usually desired for PolSAR image applications, such as image interpretation and target detection. Usually, in a PolSAR image, each resolution contains several different scattering mechanisms. If these mechanisms can be allocated to different parts within one resolution cell, details of the images can be enhanced, which that means the resolution of the images is improved. In this article, a novel super-resolution algorithm for PolSAR images is proposed, in which polarimetric target decomposition and polarimetric spatial correlation are both taken into consideration. The super-resolution method, based on polarimetric spatial correlation (SRPSC), can make full use of the polarimetric spatial correlation to allocate different scattering mechanisms of PolSAR images. The advantage of SRPSC is that the phase information can be preserved in the processed PolSAR images. The proposed methods are demonstrated with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) Experimental SAR (E-SAR) L-band full polarized images of the Oberpfaffenhofen Test Site Area in Germany, obtained on 30 September 2000. The experimental results of the SRPSC confirms the effectiveness of the proposed methods.1 相似文献

Incidence angle is one of the most important imaging parameters that affect polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) image classification. Several studies have examined the land cover classification capability of PolSAR images with different incidence angles. However, most of these studies provide limited physical insights into the mechanism how the variation of incidence angle affects PolSAR image classification. In the present study, land cover classification was conducted by using RADARSAT-2 Wide Fine Quad-Pol (FQ) images acquired at different incidence angles, namely, FQ8 (27.75°), FQ14 (34.20°), and FQ20 (39.95°). Land cover classification capability was examined for each single-incidence angle image and a multi-incidence angle image (i.e., the combination of single-incidence angle images). The multi-incidence angle image produced better classification results than any of the single-incidence angle images, and the different incidence angles exhibited different superiorities in land cover classification. The effect mechanisms of incidence angle variation on land cover classification were investigated by using the polarimetric decomposition theorem that decomposes radar backscatter into single-bounce scattering, double-bounce scattering and volume scattering. Impinging SAR easily penetrated crops to interact with the soil at a small incidence angle. Therefore, the difference in single-bounce scattering between trees and crops was evident in the FQ8 image, which was determined to be suitable for distinguishing between croplands and forests. The single-bounce scattering from bare lands increased with the decrease in incidence angles, whereas that from water changed slightly with the incidence angle variation. Consequently, the FQ8 image exhibited the largest difference in single-bounce scattering between bare lands and water and produced the fewest confusion between them among all the images. The single- and double-bounce scattering from urban areas and forests increased with the decrease in incidence angles. The increase in single- and double-bounce scattering from urban areas was more significant than that from forests because C-band SAR could not easily penetrate the crown layer of forests to interact with the trunks and ground. Therefore, the FQ8 image showed a slightly better performance than the other images in discriminating between urban areas and forests. Compared with other crops and trees, banana trees caused stronger single- and double-bounce scattering because of their large leaves. As a large incidence angle resulted in a long penetration path of radar waves in the crown layer of vegetation, the FQ20 image enhanced the single- and double-bounce scattering differences between banana trees and other vegetation. Thus, the FQ20 image outperformed the other images in identifying banana trees. 相似文献

One of the problems of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) polarimetric decomposition, is that oriented urban areas and vegetation signatures are decomposed into the same volume scattering mechanism. Such indetermination makes it difficult to distinguish vegetation from the oblique urban areas with respect to the radar illumination direction within the volume scattering mechanism. This event occurs because oriented targets exhibit similar polarimetric responses. This paper presents an improvement of the PolSAR decomposition scheme which permits the performing of more accurate classification. The method uses the information existing form the interference generated between two Doppler sub-aperture SAR images. This interferometric polarimetric SAR (PolInSAR) multi-chromatic analysis (MCA-PolInSAR) signal processing method permits the efficient separation of oriented buildings from vegetation yielding considerably improved results in which oriented urban areas are recognized, from volume scattering, as double-bounce objects. Results also show a considerable improvement in the robustness of classification and also in terms of definition and precision. 相似文献

ABSTRACTAutomatic edge detection for polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) images plays a fundamental role in various PolSAR applications. The classic methods apply the fixed-shape windows to detect the edges, whereas their performance is limited in heterogeneous areas. This article presents an enhanced edge detection method for PolSAR data based on the directional span-driven adaptive (DSDA) window. The DSDA window has variable sizes and flexible shapes, and is constructed by adaptively selecting samples that follow the same statistical distribution. Therefore, it can overcome the limitation of classic fixed-shape windows. To obtain refined and reliable edge detection results in heterogeneous urban areas, we adopt the spherically invariant random vector (SIRV) product model since the complex Wishart distribution is often not met. In addition, a span ratio is combined with the SIRV distance to highlight the dissimilarity measure and to improve the robustness of the proposed method. The simulated PolSAR data and three real data sets from experimental synthetic aperture radar, electromagnetics institute synthetic aperture radar, and Radarsat-2 systems are used to validate the performance of the enhanced edge detector. Both quantitative evaluation and visual presentation of the results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method and its superiority over the classic edge detectors. 相似文献

A novel measure of target scattering randomness, called the average degree of randomness (ADoR), is introduced in this article. The proposed parameter ADoR is based on the degrees of polarization of the scattered waves using orthogonally polarized incident waves. Combining the ADoR and the Freeman decomposition, which is applied to discriminate the dominant scattering mechanism of the target, a new scheme for unsupervised classification of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) images is designed. Considering that the preset intervals of the randomness measure may not fit the data distribution, an iterative classification method is developed. The effectiveness of the randomness measure and the proposed methods is demonstrated using a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)/Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) AIRborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (AIRSAR) PolSAR image. 相似文献

A novel algorithm for land use and land cover classification using RADARSAT-2 polarimetric SAR data 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This study proposes a new four-component algorithm for land use and land cover (LULC) classification using RADARSAT-2 polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) data. These four components are polarimetric decomposition, PolSAR interferometry, object-oriented image analysis, and decision tree algorithms. First, polarimetric decomposition can be used to support the classification of PolSAR data. It is aimed at extracting polarimetric parameters related to the physical scattering mechanisms of the observed objects. Second, PolSAR interferometry is used to extract polarimetric interferometric information to support LULC classification. Third, the main purposes of object-oriented image analysis are delineating image objects, as well as extracting various textural and spatial features from image objects to improve classification accuracy. Finally, a decision tree algorithm provides an efficient way to select features and implement classification. A comparison between the proposed method and the Wishart supervised classification which is based on the coherency matrix was made to test the performance of the proposed method. The overall accuracy of the proposed method was 86.64%, whereas that of the Wishart supervised classification was 69.66%. The kappa value of the proposed method was 0.84, much higher than that of the Wishart supervised classification, which exhibited a kappa value of 0.65. The results indicate that the proposed method exhibits much better performance than the Wishart supervised classification for LULC classification. Further investigation was carried out on the respective contribution of the four components to LULC classification using RADARSAT-2 PolSAR data, and it indicates that all the four components have important contribution to the classification. Polarimetric information has significant implications for identifying different vegetation types and distinguishing between vegetation and urban/built-up. The polarimetric interferometric information extracted from repeat-pass RADARSAT-2 images is important in reducing the confusion between urban/built-up and vegetation and that between barren/sparsely vegetated land and vegetation. Object-oriented image analysis is very helpful in reducing the effect of speckle in PolSAR images by implementing classification based on image objects, and the textural information extracted from image objects is helpful in distinguishing between water and lawn. The decision tree algorithm can achieve higher classification accuracy than the nearest neighbor classification implemented using Definiens Developer 7.0, and the accuracy of the decision tree algorithm is similar with that of the support vector classification which is implemented based on the features selected using genetic algorithms. Compared with the nearest neighbor and support vector classification, the decision tree algorithm is more efficient to select features and implement classification. Furthermore, the decision tree algorithm can provide clear classification rules that can be easily interpreted based on the physical meaning of the features used in the classification. This can provide physical insight for LULC classification using PolSAR data. 相似文献

In polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) image processing, the number of classes is an important factor for PolSAR image classification. Therefore, how to accurately estimate the number of PolSAR image classes is an important issue. In this article, we propose a novel unsupervised classification method which can accurately estimate the number of classes for PolSAR images. First, the PolSAR image is initialized into many small clusters by using the complementary information from Yamaguchi decomposition and distribution characteristics of data. Second, the improved clustering by fast search and find of density peaks, named as improved CFSFDP algorithm, is introduced to select the appropriate category number. Finally, to improve the representation of each category, the PolSAR data set is classified by an iterative fine-tuning process based on a complex K-Wishart function. The performance of the proposed classification approach is presented and analysed on three real data sets. The experimental results show that the proposed classification method can accurately estimate the category number and enhance the classification accuracy in comparison with other traditional methods. It is also shown that the data distribution characteristic has the additional information beyond the target scattering decomposition, and this information is important for the initialization. 相似文献

Ship detection can be significantly improved by using polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) imaging. In this article, we propose a PolSAR ship detection method based on the use of multi-featured polarization by using the visual attention model. Three polarimetric features, namely, the polarimetric contrast, the polarimetric scattering, and the polarimetric phase, are selected as the early features, and the pros and cons for each feature are discussed. The visual attention model is a framework that rapidly combines multiple features into one feature, which is improved according to the relationship of the selected features. Validation of the method is performed by analysing the multi-resolution process, the improved multi-feature process, the threshold strategy, the sensibility to the incidence angle of the sensors, and the performance of moving ship detection, which are analysed by Radarsat-2 fine quad images with automatic identification system data. Additionally, the false alarm/non-detection analysis and the computation cost analysis are also considered. In contrast to other ship detectors, the proposed detector is more effective and robust. 相似文献

利用震后1景极化SAR影像提取倒塌建筑物是一种快速有效的灾害调查手段。倒塌建筑和倾斜建筑物在PolSAR影像中的散射特征相似,易造成建筑物倒塌率的过度评估。由于倒塌建筑和倾斜建筑的纹理特征有较大差异,将利用这种纹理差异来解决倒塌建筑和倾斜建筑的混分问题。通过实验发现均值、同质性、熵及相关性4种基于灰度共生矩阵(Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix,GLCM)的纹理特征能够有效区分倾斜建筑和倒塌建筑,故利用这4种纹理特征提取倒塌建筑中混杂的倾斜建筑,从而降低倒塌建筑的虚警率。以玉树地震为例,提取城区的建筑物震害信息,实验证明该方法能够大幅提高建筑物震害评估精度。 相似文献

After the work of Freeman, Durden, Pottier, and Yamaguchi, many decomposition techniques have been proposed for urban areas, mainly to resolve the overestimation problem of volume scattering. Since it has been validated that the cross-polarized (HV) scattering is caused not only by forests but also by rotated dihedrals, in this paper, we propose a cross-scattering coherency matrix to model the HV component from orientated and complex buildings and then demonstrate its performance on model-based scattering decomposition. The building orientation angle is considered in this coherency matrix, making it flexible and adaptive in the decomposition. Therefore, the HV components from forests and orientated urban areas can be modelled. Two decomposition procedures are applied in this paper. The first one is to validate the effectiveness of this scattering model. We regard the HV component from urban areas as cross-scattering, which is an independent scattering component added to the Yamaguchi’s four-component decomposition. Another one is the urban area decomposition application using this scattering model. Decomposition is implemented for urban and natural areas, and the HV component from urban areas is regarded as their volume scattering. This procedure is similar to many other state-of-the-art methods for urban areas and needs to discriminate the urban and natural areas before decomposition. Spaceborne Radarsat-2 C-band, the airborne synthetic aperture radar (AIRSAR) L-band, and uninhabited aerial vehicle synthetic aperture radar (UAVSAR) L-band full polarimetric SAR data are used to validate the performance of this cross-scattering coherency matrix. The HV component of orientated buildings is generated, leading to a better decomposition result for urban areas. 相似文献

ABSTRACTA new approach in polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) speckle filtering is proposed in this article. The proposed method preserves both point targets and dominant scattering mechanisms. The point targets are detected based on the span image, and they are then neither filtered nor involved in the other pixels’ filtering. To achieve the protection of the dominant scattering mechanism of each pixel, only pixels of the same dominant scattering mechanism as the centre pixel are included in the selection of the homogeneous pixels. Both point targets not being filtered and fact that only pixels of the same dominant scattering mechanism are included in the selection of the homogeneous pixels, which greatly improves the filtering efficiency. A likelihood-ratio test statistic based on the PolSAR covariance matrices is applied to determine the homogeneous pixels. Finally, the speckle filtering is processed using the weighted minimum mean square error estimator on the homogeneous pixels. We demonstrate the obvious advantages of the proposed method over other algorithms in the preservation of point targets and dominant scattering mechanisms, speckle suppression, protection of detail information, and maintenance of polarization information, by the use of both simulated and real PolSAR data. 相似文献

This paper proposes a new algorithm, for polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) classification, based on a stacked auto-encoder and scattering energy. Previous approaches to PolSAR classification predominantly consider only the single pixel of distribution of the polarimetric data and scattering characteristics, and ignore other kinds of image features like the relationship of the local pixels. Besides, because of the complexities of PolSAR data, it is difficult to compute the derivatives that are needed for back-propagation in deep-learning classifiers. To overcome these difficulties, we propose a new approach that combines the scattering power and stacks sparse auto-encoder (Scattering SSAE) for PolSAR classification. Firstly, orientation compensation is used to compensate the polarization orientation angle, reducing the impact of polarimetric angle noise. Secondly, Freeman-Durden decomposition is adopted to extract three basic scattering powers: surface, double bounce and volume. Each PolSAR image pixel is transformed into these scattering powers, yielding a new kind of feature from the PolSAR data. Finally, using the three kinds of scattering power as inputs, we combine local spatial information using a patch-based approach, and use a deep learning architecture to achieve classification. We compare our method against several other state-of-the-art methods using ground-truthed test-data, and show that the Scattering SSAE method achieves higher accuracy than other methods on most categories. 相似文献
