• Abstract summary: Change detection is an important synthetic aperture radar (SAR) application, usually used to detect changes on the ground scene measurements in different moments in time. In this study, image stack information can be treated as a data series over time and can be modeled by autoregressive (AR) models. Applying AR model for each pixel position in the image stack, we obtained an estimated image of the ground scene which can be used as a reference image.

• Abstract: Change detection is an important synthetic aperture radar (SAR) application, usually used to detect changes on the ground scene measurements in different moments in time. Traditionally, change detection algorithm (CDA) is mainly designed for two synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images retrieved at different instants. However, more images can be used to improve the algorithms performance, witch emerges as a research topic on SAR change detection. Image stack information can be treated as a data series over time and can be modeled by autoregressive (AR) models. Thus, we present some initial findings on SAR change detection based on image stack considering AR models. Applying AR model for each pixel position in the image stack, we obtained an estimated image of the ground scene which can be used as a reference image for CDA. The experimental results reveal that ground scene estimates by the AR models is accurate and can be used for change detection applications.

  Foundation model approaches such as masked auto-encoders (MAE) or its variations are now being successfully applied to satellite imagery. Due to difficulty in semantic labeling to create datasets and higher noise content with respect to optical images, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data has not been explored a lot in the field for foundation models. In this work, we explored masked auto-encoder, specifically MixMAE on Sentinel-1 SAR images and its impact on SAR image classification tasks.

  We propose a method for detecting structural changes in a city using images captured from mounted cameras over two different times. A direct comparison of the two point clouds for change detection is not ideal due to inaccurate geo-location information. To circumvent this problem, we propose a deep learning-based non-rigid registration on the point clouds. Experiments show that our method is able to detect scene changes effectively, even in the presence of viewpoint and illumination differences.
