We propose an image coding scheme that compresses image into semantically scalable bitstream using deep neural networks. This scheme is expected to support intelligent analysis when the bitstream is partially decoded, as well as high-fidelity reconstruction of image when the bitstream is completely decoded. We implement such a semantically scalable image coding scheme based on semantic map. In the proposed scheme, the original image is firstly semantically segmented and the semantic map is compressed as the base layer. Then, the original image is segmented into several individual objects according to the semantic map, and each object is coded separately. A recurrent neural network-based encoder is used to compress these objects at several quality levels. At the decoder side, the semantic map can be directly applied for intelligent analysis. A generative adversarial network is used to synthesize a rough image using the semantic map. If user is interested in a certain object, more bits can be transmitted to enhance the quality of the object. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves comparable compression performance with JPEG2000 at high bit rates, while facilitates intelligent analysis at low bit rates.

Deep learning based patch-wise Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image classification usually requires a large number of labeled data for training. Aiming at understanding SAR images with very limited annotation and taking full advantage of complex-valued SAR data, this paper proposes a general and practical framework for quad-, dual-, and single-polarized SAR data. In this framework, two important elements are taken into consideration: image representation and physical scattering properties. Firstly, a convolutional neural network is applied for SAR image representation. Based on time-frequency analysis and polarimetric decomposition, the scattering labels are extracted from complex SAR data with unsupervised deep learning. Then, a bag of scattering topics for a patch is obtained via topic modeling. By assuming that the generated scattering topics can be regarded as the abstract attributes of SAR images, we propose a soft constraint between scattering topics and image representations to refine the network. Finally, a classifier for land cover and land use semantic labels can be learned with only a few annotated samples. The framework is hybrid for the combination of deep neural network and explainable approaches. Experiments are conducted on Gaofen-3 complex SAR data and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed framework.

In conventional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) working mode, targets are assumed isotropic due to the limited aperture length. However, most of man-made targets are anisotropic. Therefore, the anisotropic scattering can help us do man-made target detection. Circular SAR (CSAR) [1] is a new SAR working mode and it can obtain the anisotropic scattering of the target by 360° observation. In this paper, the multi-angular statistical properties of targets are analyzed. The probability density functions (PDF) of the anisotropic target are various under different aspect viewing angles, while the PDFs of the isotropic target are basically stable. Then a man-made target detection method is proposed based on the multi-angular statistical property. Likelihood ratio test [2] is used to judge whether the statistical property of scattering is anisotropic or isotropic. Then anisotropic scatterings, which represent the man-made targets, can be discriminated from isotropic scatterings by thresholding. An X-band chamber circular SAR data and a C-band airborne circular SAR data are used to illustrated our idea.
