A Novel Two-Stage Superpixel CFAR Method Based on Truncated KDE Model for Target Detection in SAR Images
Target detection in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery remains a significant technical challenge, particularly in scenarios involving multi-target interference and clutter edge effects that cannot be disregarded, notably in high-resolution imaging applications. To tackle this issue, a novel two-stage superpixel-level constant false-alarm rate (CFAR) detection method based on a truncated kernel density estimation (KDE) model is proposed in this article. The contribution mainly lies in three aspects. First, a truncated KDE model is used to fit the statistical distribution of clutter in the detection window, and adaptive thresholding is used for clutter truncation to remove outliers from the clutter samples while preserving the real clutter. Second, based on the clutter statistics, the KDE model is accurately constructed using the quartile based on the truncated clutter statistics. Third, target superpixel detection is performed using a two-stage CFAR detection scheme enhanced with local contrast measure (LCM), consisting of a global stage followed by a local stage. In the global detection phase, we identify candidate target superpixels (CTSs) based on the superpixel segmentation results. In the local detection phase, a local CFAR detector using a truncated KDE model is employed to improve the detection process, and further screening is performed on the global detection results combined with local contrast. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves excellent detection performance, while significantly reducing detection time compared to current popular methods.
