【 摘 要 】

In the SAR change detection algorithm based on self-supervised learning, speckle noise reduces the difference image (DI) quality. Therefore, the contrast of the DI is low, and its change area is not significant. Moreover, the preclassification algorithm with the poor robustness makes the classification results of the low-quality DI inaccurate. When the wrong labels are sent into the classification network, the accuracy of the final detection results is reduced. First, to improve the quality of the initial DI, we design an adaptive gamma correction algorithm that adjusts the contrast according to the mean value of the initial DI and the variation coefficient β. The contrast of the new DI generated by this algorithm is higher. Furthermore, to suppress the noise, we adopt a new algorithm based on popular ranking to obtain the saliency map of the new DI. Combining the initial DI with this saliency map, a high-quality DI with a low noise level is obtained. After that, we introduce the structure tensor into the fuzzy local information c-means clustering algorithm (FLICM) to classify the DI more accurately. The new clustering algorithm improves the accuracy of preclassification, especially its hierarchical version. Besides, we use the structure tensor to generate the structure maps of the original images. Finally, according to the prior information obtained from the preclassification, we use a convolution wavelet neural network (CWNN) to supervise and train the structure maps of the original images. Experimental results show that the DI generated by us is closer to the ground-truth than other methods. Our preclassification algorithm performs better. Our algorithm shows higher detection accuracy for SAR images with strong noise than some advanced change detection algorithms.
