Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In this letter, we propose a novel automatic target recognition (ATR) method based on dictionary learning and joint dynamic sparse representation (DL-JDSR) for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. First, in the feature extraction step, we extract two kinds of features, i.e., the image domain amplitude feature and the scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) feature, of which the image domain amplitude feature describes intensity information and the SIFT feature describes gradient information. These two features will be jointly utilized to combine the two kinds of information for SAR ATR. Second, we introduce the dictionary-learning method, the label-consistent K-singular value decomposition, into the training step to learn dictionaries for the two features rather than directly using all training samples as the fixed dictionaries in the traditional sparse representation method. The learned dictionaries have smaller sizes and are more distinctive among different classes, which can speed up our recognition and improve the accuracies. Third, the JDSR algorithm used in the test step employs a more flexible atom selection method, which enables the two features from an image data to share the similar but not exactly the same sparse mode. Experiments on the moving and stationary target acquisition and recognition data set show that the proposed method is an effective way to recognize SAR images.
