Abstract

An inshore vessel detection method based on contour refinement and improved generalized Hough transform relates to an optical remote sensing image inshore vessel detection method. The method of the invention solves the problem of low ship detection accuracy when the training sample is insufficient and the bow contour is damaged in the detection. The method comprises the steps of obtaining the length and width information of the ship to be measured and the binary edge detection result image of the ship; acquiring an equal-frequency quantized Hough space voting gradient angle reference table, utilizing remote sensing images of scenes to be detected to acquire a plurality of suspected parking areas of ships near the coastline; voting each point of the edge contour of the suspected parking area in Hough space, wherein the point whose voting cumulative value is greater than the threshold value A is the center reference point of the bow in the suspected parking area; using a minimum rectangular frame to mark a suspected ship in a remote sensing image of a scene to be detected; using the minimum rectangular frame to mark a suspected ship in a remote sensing image of the scene to be detected; carring ou the removed false alarms and fusion overlap processing on all suspected vessels to complete the detection of inshore vessels. The method of the invention is applicable to the detectionand use of offshore ships.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for detecting near-shore vessels in optical remote sensing images. Background technique [0002] Inshore vessel detection in optical remote sensing images has many important application requirements, such as change detection and port dynamic monitoring, etc. Although remote sensing images with high spatial resolution can provide more details about objects and backgrounds for object analysis, nearshore vessel detection is still a challenging task due to the following reasons. This includes texture features of nearshore vessels similar to jetties and shore installations, nearshore vessels frequently berthed side by side at jetties, nearshore vessels are partially shaded by deck superstructures, etc. [0003] Existing offshore vessel detection methods can be mainly divided into model-based detection methods and contour-based detection methods. Model-based detection methods usually utilize a large number of training samp...
