The limited availability of high-quality training data poses a persistent challenge for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) target classification. Existing data augmentation methods mainly adopt a simplistic application of GAN-based style transfer techniques to directly synthesize pseudo-SAR images from
Prototype-based personalized federated learning methods have emerged as a promising strategy due to their ability to represent client-specific class characteristics effectively through learned class prototypes. These prototypes capture salient features of client-local data, facilitating personalized
Negative transfer (NF) is a critical challenge in personalized federated learning (pFL). Existing methods primarily focus on adapting local data distribution on the client side, which can only resist NF, rather than avoid NF itself. To tackle NF at its root, we investigate its mechanism through the…
Server aggregation conflict is a key challenge in personalized federated learning (PFL). While existing PFL methods have achieved significant progress with shallow base models (e.g., four-layer CNNs), they often overlook the negative impacts of deeper base models on personalization mechanisms. In th…
Many existing personalized federated learning (PFL) methods utilize clustering-based aggregation to group clients with similar data characteristics, improving model performance by promoting collaboration among clients with shared features. While this method effectively mitigates some challenges pose…
In current synthetic aperture radar (SAR) object classification, one of the major challenges is the severe overfitting issue due to the limited dataset (few-shot) and noisy data. Considering the advantages of knowledge distillation as a learned label smoothing regularization, this paper proposes a n…
Most existing synthetic aperture radar (SAR) ship classification technologies heavily rely on correctly labeled data, ignoring the discriminate features of unlabeled SAR ship images. Even though researchers try to enrich CNN-based features by introducing traditional handcrafted features, existing me…
