• Abstract: Offshore wind farms represent a renewable energy source with a significant global growth trend, and their monitoring is strategic for territorial and environmental planning. This study's primary objective is to detect offshore wind plants at an instance level using semantic segmentation models and Sentinel-1 time series. The secondary objectives are: (a) to develop a database consisting of labeled data and S-1 time series; (b) to compare the performance of five deep semantic segmentation architectures (U-Net, U-Net++, Feature Pyramid Network - FPN, DeepLabv3+, and LinkNet); (c) develop a novel augmentation strategy that shuffles the positions of the images within the time series; (d) investigate different dimensions of time series intervals (1, 5, 10, and 15 images); and (e) evaluate the semantic-to-instance conversion procedure. LinkNet was the top-performing model, followed by U-Net++ and U-Net, while FPN and DeepLabv3+ presented the worst results. The evaluation of semantic segmentation models reveals enhanced Intersection over Union (IoU) (25%) and F-score metrics (18%) with the augmentation of time series images. The study showcases the augmentation strategy's capability to mitigate biases and precisely detect invariant targets. Furthermore, the conversion from semantic to instance segmentation demonstrates its efficacy in accurately isolating individual instances within classified regions - simplifying training data and reducing annotation effort and complexity.

  This paper presents a framework for semantic segmentation on sparse sequential point clouds of millimeter-wave radar. The sparsity and capturing temporal-topological features of mmWave data is still a problem. We introduce graph structure and topological features to the point cloud and propose a semantic segmentation framework. Our model achieves mean accuracy on a custom dataset by $mathbf82.31%$ and outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms.

  This paper proposes a self-ensembling generative adversarial network (SE-GAN) exploiting cross-domain data for semantic segmentation. In SE-GAN, a teacher network and a student network constitute a self-ensembling model for generating semantic segmentation maps, which together with a discriminator, forms a GAN. Despite its simplicity, we find SE-GAN can significantly boost the performance of adversarial training and enhance the stability of the model.
