基于表观细粒度辨别网络的近海船舶目标检测方法

近海船舶目标检测是一项非常具有挑战性的任务,受到学者专家广泛关注。基于卷积神经网络（CNN）和注意力机制的检测器在近海船舶目标检测方面的应用取得了显著成就。然而,船舶目标检测存在着表观相似和背景干扰导致检测过程中出现误检的问题。为此,本文提出了一种用于Faster RCNN（更快的基于区域的卷积神经网络）的表观细粒度辨别的检测头模块。该模块包括类别细粒度分支和高效全维动态卷积定位分支。其中类别细粒度分支通过全局特征建模和灵活的感知范围来挖掘和利用类别细粒度辨别特征,高效全维动态卷积定位分支通过高效灵活的感知船舶边界信息来区分目标与背景,从而减少误检漏检问题。通过在近海船舶公开数据集Seaships7000 上进行实验验证,本文算法减少了误检漏检,提升了检测器性能。     

Comet Halley: Nucleus and jets (results of the VEGA mission)

The VEGA-1 and VEGA-2 spacecraft made their closest approach to Comet Halley on 6 and 9 March, respectively. In this paper those results of the onboard imaging experiment which were obtained around closest approach are discussed. The nucleus of the comet was clearly identifiable as an irregularly shaped object, with overall dimensions of (16±1)×(8±1)×(8±1) km. The nucleus rotates in the prograde sense about an axis nearly perpendicular to the orbital plane with a period of 53±2 hours. Its albedo is only $\text{0.04±}\text{0.02}\text{0.01}$ Many of the jet features observed during the second fly-by have been spatially reconstructed. Their sources form a quasi-linear structure on the surface. The dust above the surface is shown to be generally optically thin with the exception of certain specific dust jets. Brightness features on the surface are clearly seen. Correlating our data with other measurements, we conclude that the dirty snow-ball model will probably need to be revised.

LOCSS and its implementation on the basis of a small satellite cluster

A problem of providing users with the necessary remote sensing data in the visible and near IR spectral bands has been considered. The solution of the problem plans increase of spatial and spectral resolution for imaging from space, high periodicity of surveying the same sites on the Earth's surface and spaceborne data delivery to users in real time.

This problem solution proposed is to use a cluster of small satellites and to implement the Local Space Service (LOCSS) program. The main aspects of this concept are as follows:

• • optimization of remote sensing instrumentation parameters;

• • image data compression onboard a small spacecraft;

• • compressed data downlinking via the low rate radio channel;

• • direct reception of the image data by users at small cheap receiving stations; and

• • image data decompression and processing using personal computers and special processors.
