SAR Image Change Detection via Multiple-Window Processing with Structural Similarity
In this paper, a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) change detection approach is proposed based on a structural similarity index measure (SSIM) and multiple-window processing (MWP). The proposed scheme is performed in two steps: (1) generation of a coherence image based on MWP associated with SSIM and (...

| description | In this paper, a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) change detection approach is proposed based on a structural similarity index measure (SSIM) and multiple-window processing (MWP). The proposed scheme is performed in two steps: (1) generation of a coherence image based on MWP associated with SSIM and (2) gamma correction (GC) filtering. The proposed method is capable of providing a high-quality coherence image because the MWP operation based on SSIM has high sensitivity to the similarity measure for intensity between two SAR images. By finding an optimum value of order of GC, the proposed method can considerably reduce the effect of speckle noise on the coherence image, while retaining nearly all the information related to changed region involved in the change detection map. Several experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. |
