A Convolutional Neural Network SAR Image Denoising Algorithm Based on Self-Learning Strategies

Due to its high resolution and all-weather imaging capability, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is widely used in fields such as Earth observation and environmental monitoring. However, SAR images are prone to noise interference during the imaging process, which seriously affects the visualization effect and subsequent analysis of the image. This article proposes a convolutional neural network SAR image denoising algorithm based on self-learning strategy. Particularly, a denoising convolutional neural network that utilizes a self-learning denoising model and a twin convolutional network structure is proposed. By constructing a noise original image dataset sample pair for training, the model can automatically learn image features and noise distribution, significantly improving the denoising effect of SAR images and possessing stronger generalization ability. The simulation experiments verified the effectiveness of the proposed method, indicating its potential application in SAR image denoising.

Abstract

Due to its high resolution and all-weather imaging capability, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is widely used in fields such as Earth observation and environmental monitoring. However, SAR images are prone to noise interference during the imaging process, which seriously affects the visualization effect and subsequent analysis of the image. This article proposes a convolutional neural network SAR image denoising algorithm based on self-learning strategy. Particularly, a denoising convolutional neural network that utilizes a self-learning denoising model and a twin convolutional network structure is proposed. By constructing a noise original image dataset sample pair for training, the model can automatically learn image features and noise distribution, significantly improving the denoising effect of SAR images and possessing stronger generalization ability. The simulation experiments verified the effectiveness of the proposed method, indicating its potential application in SAR image denoising.
