With the development of deep learning technology, convolutional neural networks have made significant progress in SAR ship detection, but still face challenges posed by background noise interference and inadequate appearance features of small-scale objects. To address these issues, a small ship detection algorithm for SAR images is proposed, which combines a coordinate-aware mixed attention mechanism and a spatial semantic joint context method. The experiments conducted on the LS-SSDD-v1.0 and the HRSID dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods, achieving average precisions of 77.23% and 90.85% respectively.
With the rapid development of deep learning technology in recent years, convolutional neural networks have gained remarkable progress in SAR ship detection tasks. However, noise interference of the background and inadequate appearance features of small-scale objects still pose challenges. To tackle these issues, we propose a small ship detection algorithm for SAR images by means of a coordinate-aware mixed attention mechanism and spatial semantic joint context method. First, the coordinate-aware mixed attention mechanism innovatively combines coordinate-aware channel attention and spatial attention to achieve coordinate alignment of mixed attention features. In this way, attention with finer spatial granularity is conducive to strengthening the focusing ability on small-scale objects, thereby suppressing the background clutters accurately. In addition, the spatial semantic joint context method exploits the local and global environmental information jointly. The detailed spatial cues contained in the multi-scale local context and the generalized semantic information encoded in the global context are used to enhance the feature expression and distinctiveness of small-scale ship objects. Extensive experiments are conducted on the LS-SSDD-v1.0 and the HRSID dataset. The results with an average precision of 77.23% and 90.85% on the two datasets show the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
