| Summary: | While various methods have been developed to estimate the age of impact craters, such as the crater size frequency distribution and morphology methods. Accurately and efficiently estimating the ages of lunar craters using traditional techniques is challenging due to their complex morphology and large number. As a result, the accuracy of age estimation algorithms for meteorite craters based on deep learning is restricted by factors such as a scarcity of age-labeled data and the complex morphology of these craters. To address these issues, this article presents an enhanced double-branch network for estimating crater ages via semisupervised learning and multisource lunar data. The algorithm consists of three steps: semisupervised training data augmentation, adaptive two-branch feature extraction, and a two-stage crater age classification process. The effectiveness of the improved approach was validated through ablation experiments, resulting in an overall accuracy of 83.7% on the test set of meteorite craters. This is 5.2% higher than the accuracy achieved by the previous deep learning method.
