Rethinking SAR ATR: A Target-Aware Frequency-Spatial Enhancement Framework with Noise-Resilient Knowledge Guidance
- 通过频域-空域联合卷积增强浅层特征,突出目标细节
- 引入在线知识蒸馏机制,使模型在高噪声下仍能聚焦目标区域
- 轻量版与高精度版模型均表现优异,适合实际部署与复杂场景
合成孔径雷达自动目标识别(SAR ATR)在海洋导航与灾害监测中具有重要意义。然而,SAR图像固有的相干斑点噪声常掩盖关键目标特征,导致识别准确率下降和模型泛化能力受限。为此,本文提出一种目标感知的频域-空域增强框架(FSCE),包含频域-空域浅层特征自适应增强模块(DSAF),通过多尺度空间卷积与频域小波卷积处理浅层特征。同时,采用教师-学生学习范式结合在线知识蒸馏(KD)方法,引导学生网络更有效关注目标区域,增强对高噪声背景的鲁棒性。通过注意力传递与抗噪表征学习的协同优化,显著提升噪声环境下目标识别稳定性。基于该框架,设计了两种不同性能侧重的网络结构:轻量级DSAFNet-M与高精度DSAFNet-L。在MSTAR、FUSARShip和OpenSARShip数据集上进行大量实验,结果表明DSAFNet-L在三个数据集上均达到或优于现有方法;DSAFNet-M大幅降低模型复杂度,同时保持相当的识别精度。这些结果表明所提FSCE框架具备强大的跨模型泛化能力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Synthetic aperture radar automatic target recognition (SAR ATR) is of considerable importance in marine navigation and disaster monitoring. However, the coherent speckle noise inherent in SAR imagery often obscures salient target features, leading to degraded recognition accuracy and limited model generalization. To address this issue, this paper proposes a target-aware frequency-spatial enhancement framework with noise-resilient knowledge guidance (FSCE) for SAR target recognition. The proposed framework incorporates a frequency-spatial shallow feature adaptive enhancement (DSAF) module, which processes shallow features through spatial multi-scale convolution and frequency-domain wavelet convolution. In addition, a teacher-student learning paradigm combined with an online knowledge distillation method (KD) is employed to guide the student network to focus more effectively on target regions, thereby enhancing its robustness to high-noise backgrounds. Through the collaborative optimization of attention transfer and noise-resilient representation learning, the proposed approach significantly improves the stability of target recognition under noisy conditions. Based on the FSCE framework, two network architectures with different performance emphases are developed: lightweight DSAFNet-M and high-precision DSAFNet-L. Extensive experiments are conducted on the MSTAR, FUSARShip and OpenSARShip datasets. The results show that DSAFNet-L achieves competitive or superior performance compared with various methods on three datasets; DSAFNet-M significantly reduces the model complexity while maintaining comparable accuracy. These results indicate that the proposed FSCE framework exhibits strong cross-model generalization.
