用物理启发的神经网络实现实时卫星热异常检测

Damage caused by bushfires and volcanic eruptions escalates rapidly when detection is delayed, making fast and reliable early warning capabilities essential. Recent Earth Observation (EO) approaches have shown that thermal anomaly detection can be performed directly on decompressed Level-0 (L0) sensor data, avoiding computationally expensive preprocessing chains. However, direct exploitation of raw data remains challenging due to domain shift, sensor drift, radiometric inconsistencies, and the scarcity of labelled training samples. To address these challenges, this work proposes a Physics-Aware Neuromorphic Network (PANN) framework for onboard thermal anomaly detection. The proposed lightweight architecture, inspired by physical neural network principles and neuromorphic computing paradigms, is evaluated using two Sentinel-2 datasets: decompressed L0 with additional metadata (i.e. raw) and Level-1C (L1C). The PANN achieves a Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC) of $0.809$ on raw measurements, compared to $0.875$ when using ground-processed L1C products. The mean processing latency per L0 granule is $2.44 \pm 0.09~\mathrm{s}$, which is below the Sentinel-2 acquisition time of $3.6~\mathrm{s}$, demonstrating the feasibility of real-time, onboard processing. Furthermore, the projected execution time for the corresponding neuromorphic hardware instantiation is substantially lower at $0.1290 \pm 0.0002~\mathrm{s}$. Memory usage, including all necessary programs and packages, remains within realistic onboard constraints, with requirements of $0.673 \pm 0.007~\mathrm{Gb}$ for the software PANN and $0.393 \pm 0.004~\mathrm{Gb}$ for the estimated hardware realisation. Overall, these results indicate that PANN offers a promising pathway toward low-latency and resource-efficient onboard EO processing for thermal event detection.
