Ship Classification in SAR Imagery by Shallow CNN Pre-Trained on Task-Specific Dataset with Feature Refinement

Abstract: Ship classification based on high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery plays an increasingly important role in various maritime affairs, such as marine transportation management, maritime emergency rescue, marine pollution prevention and control, marine security situational awareness, and so on. The technology of deep learning, especially convolution neural network (CNN), has shown excellent performance on ship classification in SAR images. Nevertheless, it still has some limitations in real-world… Show more

“…Chen et al [15] Ships are the primary carriers for maritime cargo transportation and critical targets in military activities. Therefore, ship recognition and classification based on optical remote sensing imagery plays an increasingly important role in various maritime affairs [4]. For civil use, it can monitor maritime traffic conditions, prevent congestion, aid in emergency search and rescue operations, command vessels in special sea areas and nearby ports, and effectively combat against illegal activities such as pollution, smuggling, and human trafficking.…”

“…ConvNext achieved first place in the ImageNet [54] classification challenge in 2022, showcasing its exceptional performance in image recognition tasks. Since the FUSAR-Ship dataset has a relatively small size, we decided to utilize ResNet18 [55] as the backbone backbone to extract ship features from SAR images in accordance with recent research findings [56]. Both ConvNext and ResNet18 were were initially trained (pre-trained) on the ImageNet dataset and subsequently fine-tuned using training data specific to each dataset.…”
