Boosting Ship Detection in SAR Images With Complementary Pretraining Techniques

Wei Bao et al.

Summary: Deep learning methods have made significant progress in ship detection in SAR images. Pretraining techniques are adopted to support deep neural networks-based SAR ship detectors due to scarce labeled SAR images. However, directly leveraging ImageNet pretraining is hard to obtain a good ship detector because of different imaging perspectives and geometry. Proposed methods, including an optical ship detector (OSD) pretraining technique and an optical-SAR matching (OSM) pretraining technique, aim to address these issues and improve ship detection results. Combining predictions from these two detectors through weighted boxes fusion further enhances detection performance, achieving state-of-the-art results in ship detection in SAR images.
