Embodiment 1

[0089] The present invention is a polarization SAR image ship target detection method based on the distribution characteristics of the superpixel scattering mechanism, which mainly involves the detection of some important ship targets on the sea surface. Some existing detection algorithms are mainly based on the pixel-level scattering mechanism characteristics. For detection, with the improvement of radar resolution, some point targets show a trend of regional distribution. The traditional detection algorithm based on the single-pixel point scattering mechanism has poor robustness for the detection of these extended targets and cannot reach the actual detection rate. In view of the above shortcomings, the present invention uses the superpixel-based scattering mechanism distribution feature to detect sea surface ship targets, which can significantly improve the detection performance of regionally distributed targets.
