Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of earth observation, in particular to a detection and recognition method for multi-directional ship targets in high-resolution remote sensing images. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of earth observation technology in recent years, the acquisition of high-resolution and high-precision remote sensing images has become easier. High-resolution remote sensing images provide a good foundation for more accurate target detection and recognition. Ships are important targets at sea, and their detection and identification are of great significance in both civil and military fields. In terms of civilian use, the detection and identification of ships can monitor the position of ships at sea, which is convenient for maritime search and rescue, search of smuggling ships, and monitoring of sea areas; [0003] At present, there is no perfect large-scale ship target detection and recognition d...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] For the detection and recognition of high-resolution remote sensing ship targets, most of the existing image sample generation and augmentation methods are based on small scene images (resolution below 1920x1080), and there is no sample generation method for large scene images. Meet the generation and augmentation requirements of deep learning training samples in remote sensing images of large scenes

[0008] In traditional object detection and recognition methods, the use of expert features needs to describe and design features based on the prior knowledge of experts, which is highly subjective and easily affected by expert experience.

In addition, traditional machine learning classification models cannot make full use of large-scale data information, and it is difficult to achieve satisfactory classification results, resulting in a decrease in the accuracy of target detection and target recognition.

[0009] The existing deep learning methods cannot meet the technical requirements of multi-oriented ship target detection and recognition, mainly in the following aspects: first, the detection results of these methods use horizontal rectangular boxes to describe the position of the detection target, which is not suitable for multi-oriented ship targets. The description of the target position is not accurate enough, and it will contain more background information for non-horizontal and vertical ship targets

Second, the feature extraction layer used in these methods is relatively si
