• Abstract: Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery has diverse applications in land and marine surveillance. Unlike electro-optical (EO) systems, these systems are not affected by weather conditions and can be used in the day and night times. With the growing importance of SAR imagery, it would be desirable if models trained on widely available EO datasets can also be used for SAR images. In this work, we consider transfer learning to leverage deep features from a network trained on an EO ships dataset and generate predictions on SAR imagery. Furthermore, by exploring the network activations in the form of class-activation maps (CAMs), we visualize the transfer learning process to SAR imagery and gain insight on how a deep network interprets a new modality.

  Deep learning methods can facilitate the analysis of different satellite modalities, such as electro-optical (EO) and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery. We show how distributional alignment of neural network embeddings can produce powerful transfer learning models by employing a sliced Wasserstein distance (SWD) loss. In an application to few-shot Local Climate Zone (LCZ) prediction, we show that these networks outperform multiple common baselines on datasets with a large number of classes.
