Embodiment Construction

[0020] Now in conjunction with embodiment, accompanying drawing, the present invention will be further described:

[0021] The present invention extracts multi-scale features from images through multi-scale convolution groups, uses dilated convolutions to increase the receptive field of convolution kernels, extracts more contextual information from images, and uses skip connections to transfer shallow feature information to deep convolutions. Layers are stacked to maintain image details, an attention mechanism is added to focus on extracting noise-related features, and residual learning is combined to learn the complex mapping relationship between the original coherent speckle noise image and coherent speckle noise. details as follows:

[0022] Step 1: Generate training sample pairs. Since it is difficult to obtain clean SAR images without coherent speckle noise, it is necessary to use simulated SAR images as training data. The present invention selects 410 images in the UCM...

Abstract

The invention relates to an SAR image denoising method based on a multi-scale hole residual attention network. The method comprises the following steps of by extracting features of different scales ofthe image through a multi-scale convolution group, broadening a convolution kernel receptive field by utilizing cavity convolution; exuecting more context information of the image; and transmitting the feature information of the shallow layer to a deep convolutional layer by using jump connection to keep image details, adding an attention mechanism to intensively extract noise-related features, and automatically learning the SAR image speckle noise distribution form in combination with a residual error learning strategy to achieve the purpose of removing speckle noise. Experimental results show that compared with a traditional SAR image noise removal method, the method has the advantages that the speckle noise removal effect is good, the number of artificial traces is small, detail information of the image is kept, and the calculation speed is higher through the GPU.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a SAR image multiplicative coherent speckle noise removal method based on a multi-scale hole residual attention network, which belongs to the field of remote sensing image processing. Background technique [0002] Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a coherent imaging sensor that can acquire large amounts of high-quality surface data. Due to its ability to operate at night and in harsh weather conditions such as thin clouds and smog, SAR has gradually become an important source of remote sensing data in fields such as geographic mapping, resource investigation, and military reconnaissance. However, SAR images are often affected by multiplicative noise caused by the coherence of scattering phenomena, that is, coherent speckle noise. The existence of coherent speckle noise seriously affects the quality of SAR images, and greatly reduces the efficiency of SAR image interpretation tasks such as object detection and instance segmenta...
