Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of microwave photon radar maneuvering target recognition, and in particular to a method for strongly maneuvering target recognition based on small sample incremental learning. Background Art

[0002] Traditional radar systems, limited by the bandwidth and signal processing capabilities of electronic devices, face core challenges in identifying highly maneuvering targets, including insufficient dynamic feature capture and difficulty fusing multi-domain information. The motion characteristics of highly maneuvering targets lead to dramatic fluctuations in their time-frequency energy distribution, rapid switching of polarization scattering characteristics, and nonlinear distortion of geometric profile topology. Although microwave photon radars have overcome bandwidth limitations through optical domain signal processing, their target recognition still relies on static feature libraries, making them difficult to adapt to dynamic battlefield environments. Existing methods, such as high-resolution Doppler image-based maneuver detection algorithms or recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for turning maneuver recognition, can extract single-dimensional features, but these methods suffer from weak cross-domain correlation and fail to consider the physical consistency constraints of polarization-geometry features, resulting in increased false alarm rates.

[0003] Radar target recognition faces the dual challenges of sample scarcity and model update lag. Existing small-sample learning methods such as prototypical networks and generative adversarial networks (CycleGANs) can alleviate the data shortage problem, but the generated synthetic data lacks physical interpretability, resulting in poor model generalization in real-world scenarios. Regarding incremental learning, traditional dynamically scalable networks or end-to-end incremental learning can gradually expand model capacity, but are prone to catastrophic forgetting, which can lead to a sharp decline in recognition performance for old targets. Therefore, designing a method suitable for microwave photon radar to identify highly maneuverable targets has become a hot research topic. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the background technology and propose a microwave photon strong maneuvering target recognition method based on small sample incremental learning, which improves the recognition accuracy and real-time performance of strong maneuvering targets in complex electromagnetic environments, and ultimately realizes the rapid recognition of strong maneuvering targets using microwave photon radar.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solutions to solve the above technical problems:

[0006] The microwave photon radar strong maneuvering target recognition method based on small sample incremental learning includes the following steps:

[0007] Step S1: Input the target data acquired by the microwave photon radar into the multi-domain feature fusion module, extract the time-frequency energy dynamic characteristics through the long short-term memory network, mine the polarization scattering spatial pattern through the convolutional neural network, and model the geometric contour topological relationship through the graph neural network. The time-frequency energy dynamic characteristics, polarization scattering spatial pattern and geometric contour topological relationship are dynamically fused through the cross-domain attention mechanism to output multi-dimensional joint representation features;

[0008] Step S2: In the small sample data augmentation module, based on the multi-dimensional joint representation features obtained in step S1, a polarization-time-frequency adversarial generative network (PT-GAN) is designed. Synthetic data that conforms to the laws of electromagnetic scattering is generated in combination with the physical constraints of Maxwell's equations. Using this synthetic data and real data, a prototype feature support set is constructed through meta-learning.

[0009] Step S3: In the physical constraint incremental learning model, the prototype feature support set constructed in step S2 is used, and a dynamic knowledge distillation framework is adopted to align the motion parameters and classification probability distribution of the teacher model and the student model through physical consistency loss. The model training update is achieved by combining the gradient importance screening mechanism based on parameter sensitivity.

[0010] Furthermore, the specific extraction process of extracting the time-frequency energy dynamic characteristics through the long short-term memory network in step S1 is as follows:

[0011] The time-frequency graph generated by the Wigner-Ville distribution is used as input, and a bidirectional long short-term memory network is used to capture the temporal correlation of the target motion. The hidden state update process of the bidirectional long short-term memory network can be expressed as:

[0012]

[0013] where x t is the input of LSTM network, f t 、i t 、o t Represent the outputs of the forget gate, input gate, and output gate respectively, is the candidate cell state, C t 、C t-1 is the cell state at the current and previous time steps, h t 、h t-1 is the hidden layer state of the current and previous time steps, σ is the Sigmoid function, W f 、W i 、W c 、W o and b f 、b i 、b C 、b o are learnable parameters.

[0014] Furthermore, the step S1 of mining polarization scattering spatial patterns through convolutional neural networks is specifically as follows:

[0015] Based on the polarization scattering matrix decomposed by Pauli, a multi-scale convolutional neural network, namely CNN, is constructed to finally mine the polarization scattering spatial pattern and calculate the polarization entropy feature H P Quantify the randomness of target scattering, H P Calculated by the following formula:

[0016]

[0017] where p i represents the proportion of scattered energy of polarization channel i, and N is the total number of polarization channels;

[0018] By introducing reciprocity theorem constraints in the convolution kernel, the network is forced to learn polarization patterns that conform to electromagnetic laws.

[0019] Furthermore, the step S1 of constructing the geometric contour topological relationship through graph neural network modeling is specifically as follows:

[0020] The contour point cloud extracted from the range-Doppler image is modeled as a graph structure. The equivariant graph neural network is used to extract the rotation and translation invariant geometric features and construct the geometric contour topological relationship. The graph convolution process of the convolution layer is defined as:

[0030] The loss function of the generator is composed of adversarial loss and physical constraints Joint composition:

[0031]

[0032] in To trade off the coefficient, adversarial loss D(·) is the output of the discriminator, G(z) is the output of the generator in PT-GAN, and the physical constraint term This is achieved by regularizing the differential form of Maxwell's equations, specifically:

[0046] Furthermore, the specific process of step S3 is as follows:

[0047] Step S3-1, using the synthetic data and prototype feature support set generated in step S2, initialize the teacher model and the student model, where the teacher model is based on the initial target recognition model and the student model is the target recognition model to be updated;

[0048] Step S3-2: Through the dual feature and semantic alignment mechanism of the teacher-student architecture, the teacher model parameters are fixed, and the student model is trained using synthetic data and the prototype feature support set. Parameter-level knowledge transfer is achieved through feature space constraints. At the same time, the KL divergence loss is introduced in the output layer to constrain the classification probability distribution, so that the student model inherits the classification decision boundary of the teacher model;

[0049] Step S3-3: Embed the hypersonic vehicle motion equations as physical constraints into the knowledge distillation process, and construct a physical consistency loss function. Continue training the student model trained in step S3-2 to align the motion parameters and classification probability distributions of the teacher model and the student model.

[0050] Step S3-4: Based on the training results of steps S3-2 and S3-3, a gradient importance screening mechanism based on parameter sensitivity is designed to fine-tune only the highly sensitive parameters to achieve lightweight incremental updates of the target recognition model.

[0051] Furthermore, the teacher model f in the teacher-student architecture T The intermediate feature h T With student model f S The corresponding feature h S By constraining alignment with the L2 norm, the feature alignment loss is defined as:

[0052]

[0053] The KL divergence loss constrained classification probability distribution is:

[0062] Furthermore, the gradient importance screening mechanism based on parameter sensitivity in step S3-4 requires the definition of parameter θ j Fisher information I(θ j ):

[0063]

[0064] in is the total loss function, and a binary mask matrix M is generated by a dynamic threshold τ, whose elements M j satisfy:

[0065]

[0066] During back propagation, only highly sensitive parameters are updated, and the gradient update rule is:

[0067]

[0068] Among them, θ (t+1) ,θ (t) are the highly sensitive parameters that need to be updated at time steps t+1 and t, respectively, and η is the learning rate.
