• Abstract summary: Ship detection from satellite imagery using Deep Learning (DL) is an indispensable solution for maritime surveillance. Applying DL models trained on one dataset to others having differences in spatial resolution and radiometric features requires many adjustments. This paper focused on the DL models trained on datasets that consist of different optical images and a combination of radar and optical data.

• Abstract: Ship detection from satellite imagery using Deep Learning (DL) is an indispensable solution for maritime surveillance. However, applying DL models trained on one dataset to others having differences in spatial resolution and radiometric features requires many adjustments. To overcome this issue, this paper focused on the DL models trained on datasets that consist of different optical images and a combination of radar and optical data. When dealing with a limited number of training images, the performance of DL models via this approach was satisfactory. They could improve 5-20% of average precision, depending on the optical images tested. Likewise, DL models trained on the combined optical and radar dataset could be applied to both optical and radar images. Our experiments showed that the models trained on an optical dataset could be used for radar images, while those trained on a radar dataset offered very poor scores when applied to optical images.

  This paper presents an approach for tracking surrounding traffic participants with a classical tracking algorithm. Learning based object detectors have been shown to work adequately on lidar and camera data, while learning based object detectors using standard radar data input have proven to be inferior. With the improvements to radar sensor technology in the form of imaging radars, the object detection performance on radar was greatly improved but is still limited compared to lidar sensors due to the sparsity of the radar point cloud. The tracking algorithm must overcome the limited detection quality while generating consistent tracks.

  This paper presents a new approach to boost a single-modality (LiDAR) 3D object detector by teaching it to simulate features and responses that follow a multi-modality (LiDAR-image) detector. The approach needs LiDAR-image data only when training the single-modality detector, and once well-trained, it only needs LiDAR data at inference. Experimental results on the nuScenes dataset show that our approach outperforms all SOTA LiDAR-only 3D detectors.

  Automotive radars are low-cost active sensors that measure properties of surrounding objects. They are seldom used for scene understanding due to the size and complexity of radar raw data. We propose several novel architectures, and their associated losses, which analyse multiple "views" of the range-angle-Doppler radar tensor to segment it semantically.

  In this paper, we explore the possibility of achieving a more accurate depth estimation by fusing monocular images and Radar points using a deep neural network. We find that the noise existing in Radar measurements is one of the main key reasons that prevents one from applying the existing fusion methods. The experiments are conducted on the nuScenes dataset, which is one of the first datasets which features Camera, Radar, and LiDAR recordings in diverse scenes and weather conditions.
